Description of problem: The default installation of Geany calls for using "xterm" as its default term, however by default Fedora 31 does not install xterm. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.36 How reproducible: Default configuration Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Geany, open preferences (Ctrl+Alt+P) 2. Default terminal application is pre-populated with expression: xterm -e "/bin/sh %c" Actual results: When executing a script that opens the terminal, Geany errors due to xterm not existing. Example error message: 20:12:04: Cannot execute build command "xterm -e "/bin/sh /tmp/geany_run_script_Z5XTE0.sh"": No such file or directory. Check the Terminal setting in Preferences Expected results: Geany pre-selects default terminal for system, which is gnome-terminal Additional info: Its simple for the user to change this default preference.
Geany for example is also installed on the Fedora Xfce spin by default and there is no gnome-terminal on the Xfce spin, of course. Thus, setting gnome-terminal to the default isn't a good idea I guess. The only thing I could suggest for convenience is to add a requirement (or recommends) on xterm so installing Geany pulls in (or recommends) xterm. Does that sound like a suitable solution for you?
Dominic, either-or would be fine by me.
