[Bug 658058] [NEW] xfce x-terminal emulator: TERM environment variable not set

 

Public bug reported:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

In a fresh install of Mythbuntu 10.10, running Accessories, Terminal
(xfce x-terminal emulator):

Code:

> echo $TERM
dumb
>

This results in apps that need to know what's available (top for
example) reporting "TERM environment variable not set" and halting.

Code:

> export TERM=xterm

fixes this temporarily. This was seen earlier for Terminator, bug
#621606, and fixed, but apparently not here.

Checked in Mythbuntu 10.04: $TERM is set to 'xterm'

 affects mythbuntu
