Bug#348226: uxterm refuse to run shell as login-shell
Package: xutils
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11
Severity: important
I have done my best to ensure that (u)xterm runs zsh, my default shell,
as a login shell. I have added proper configs to my X-resources and it
worked fine until I switched to UTF-8-era. Now luit seems to fsck things
up:
15541 ? S 0:01 xterm -class UXTerm -title uxterm -u8 -geometry 80x70 -ls
15556 pts/17 Ss+ 0:00 \_ /usr/X11R6/bin/luit
15558 pts/18 Ss 0:01 \_ zsh-beta
It do not help, if I start my uxterm like this:
uxterm -ls
If I start my uxterm like this:
uxterm -e 'zsh-beta -l'
Window opens, but shell prompt do not appear. Output of ”ps xf” looks
like this:
15716 ? S 0:00 xterm -class UXTerm -title uxterm -u8 -e zsh -l
15727 pts/22 Ss+ 0:00 \_ /usr/X11R6/bin/luit -- zsh -l
15728 ? Zs 0:00 \_ [luit] <defunct>
