[Python-apps-team] Bug#827196: ocrfeeder: Does not launch with supplied .desktop file

[David Schiller]

Package: ocrfeeder
Version: 0.8.1-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Clicking on the application entry in the menu does not do anything.

Syslog reports:

[options]

Jun 13 17:33:35 debian-x230 ocrfeeder.desktop[13095]: ocrfeeder: error: -i
option requires an argument
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Exec key in the .desktop file specifies the "-i %f" option, which is the
problem it seems.
Launching from the command line without the option works perfectly.
