Bug#770369: Eterm: does not run shell
Package: Eterm
Version: 0.9.6-1
Severity: normal
Hello,
I did
# apt-get install eterm
$ Eterm
A window opens with cursor but no shell starts.
I can type in the window and characters appear as typed. There is no
other response.
Presumably if some poor user installed Eterm and their
x-terminal-emulator got switched to Eterm it would seriously impair
usability of their system.
In the terminal where I start Eterm I get
Eterm: Warning: Unable to resolve "bottom_right" as a color name.
Falling back on "#000000".
