Doesn't work on Arch Linux #27

Closed 103sbavert closed 1 year ago

103sbavert commented 1 year ago

The package on Arch Linux is named xdg-terminal-exec-git, the terminal I am using is blackbox-terminal from the AUR.

Here's my gnome-xdg-terminals.list and xdg-terminals.list 

com.raggesilver.BlackBox.desktop

(This file clearly does exist in my .local/share/applications and /usr/share/applications dirs)

Running xdg-terminal-exec gives:

finding preferred entry in configs
looking for config '/home/sbeve72/.config/gnome-xdg-terminals.list'
reading config '/home/sbeve72/.config/gnome-xdg-terminals.list'

NVM, the problem was that the terminal's .desktop file wasn't in .local/share/xdg-terminals but instead on .local/share/applications and also .local/share/applications/xdg-terminals.
