Bug#1119265: gnome-nettool: dig command not working (command line has it duplicated)

Package: gnome-nettool
Version: 42.0-2.1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: jordi.burguet.castell at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

When using any of the dig commands (like in the Lookup tab, asking for
"Information type: Canonical Name"), the command fails with a message like:

  An error occurred when try to run "Lookup"

  /usr/bin/dig dig +nocomments +search +nocmd +nostats +noadditional eff.org
CNAME

It seems that the "dig" command appears twice (once with the full path, then
just the name), and that is causing the problem.

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
