[Python-apps-team] Bug#969772: rabbitvcs: searches PATH for a program named "gio trash"

Source: rabbitvcs
Version: 0.18-2
Severity: normal

While searching codesearch.debian.net for references to the deprecated
gvfs-* utilities, I noticed that rabbitvcs seems to have been ported
from gvfs-trash to "gio trash" (good), but it seems to have been ported
incorrectly (less good).

It does this:

            retcode = subprocess.call(["gio trash", abspath])

which searches the PATH for a program named "gio trash", which probably
isn't going to exist.

I think this should be:

            retcode = subprocess.call(["gio", "trash", abspath])

Thanks,
    smcv
