[Bug 1340005] Re: gnome-do unable to find or launch terminal
So, I think this is plausibly a Cinnamon or Mint bug - Cinnamon is
setting the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP flag to X-Cinnamon, which is OK, but
gnome-terminal.desktop (and probably other things) specifies
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity. Thus, Do (correctly) fails to show it.
Possibly the correct solution would be for Mint to patch the GNOME
Terminal desktop file to add X-Cinnamon to the list of desktop
environments to show in.
We could also bodge this in Do by treating X-Cinnamon as GNOME, but
that's ugly and fragile.

Title:
gnome-do unable to find or launch terminal
Status in Do:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm having an issue where gnome-do seems to be unable to find or
launch the terminal. I installed from my distribution's repos. I
summon gnome-do and start typing "term" which used to be enough to
bring up the shortcut. Even if I fully type "terminal" I still don't
see it, even in the dropdown. All my other applications seem to be
found and launched normally. I was running a fully updated version of
Linux Mint 16 before this and experienced the normal desired behavior.
I ran "gnome-do --debug" and the logs didn't seem to change as I
typed, so I assume the auto-complete doesn't write to the debug. It
seems gnome-do isn't finding the shortcut to the terminal. Can
someone else running LM17 confirm?
My guess is that the location of the terminal client changed and
that's what is causing the problem. I'm not sure if I should be
informing the Linux Mint team or the Gnome-do team (or both) about
this. Perhaps symlinking the old and new locations would solve the
problem?
Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide to help
pinpoint the source of the problem.
My Specs:
gnome-do 0.9
Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon 64-bit (install only a few days old)
3.13.0-24-generic
Intel Core 2 Duo
3.7GB memory
