Bug Description
First of all, I do not really know whether ths is a PCManFM issue at all...maybe it's distro-specific enough to blame the individual packagers...
Minor issue, no big deal.
Reproduction:
- Preferably use LXDE/Openbox (which is the default on Lubuntu here)
- Launch PCManFM
- Type menu:// into the address bar in PCManFm
(You will end up in menu://
- Visit a folder, e. g. "Internet".
- Click RIGHT mouse button, and say "Open With -> Create Launcher on the panel".
Result:
It does not work.
It complains about "no running instance of xfce4-panel" found.
Well, what we use is lxpanel, not xfce4-panel. These are two entirely different pairs of socks, or more exactly: they're even mutually exclusive. AFAIK you cannot (nor should) run them simultaneously.
