Bug Description

Binary package hint: anjuta

Description: Ubuntu 9.10 german
Release: 9.10

anjuta:
  Installiert: 2:2.28.0.0-0ubuntu3
  Kandidat: 2:2.28.0.0-0ubuntu3
  Versions-Tabelle:

I created a simple c project with defaults (even name foobar-sample) and build it using debug-configuration. I double checked that both -g and -O0 is used for building. I set a breakpoint and start debugging with SHIFT-F12.
A Warning pops up asking if I am sure to debug an application built without debuggingconfiguration. Thats wrong.
I bypass this popup, next there comes an error message "Terminal zur Fehlerdiagnose kann nicht gestartet werden.". In english it is something like "Terminal could not be started for debugging". I do not get a terminal, so no program output either.
I should mention that debugging itself is working. I can execute the Program step by step, set breakpoints, get local variables, and so on.

I expect that no wrong warnigs pop up and the terminal should open for debugging.

The problem is within the anjuta source code. Anjuta tries to start anjuta_launcher, but the filename is called anjuta-launcher. Symlink /usr/bin/anjuta-launcher to /usr/bin/anjuta_launcher fixes this problem.

Changed in anjuta (Ubuntu):

Here is a copy of my terminal entry. I still have the same problem. Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong here? By the way, is there a patch for this problem? I am running Ubuntu 9.10.

/usr/bin$ sudo ln -s anjuta-launcher anjuta_launcher
[sudo] password for jim:
/usr/bin$ ls anjuta*
anjuta anjuta_launcher anjuta-launcher anjuta-tags
