Description:
After upgrading (using [testing]) to the latest version of gvim/vim-runtime my *.tex files which previously opened with gvim started opening in firefox instead. After comparing versions, I realize the file gvim.desktop has changed drastically, but only one line actually caused the behaviour I was seeing. Removing 'Terminal=0' from gvim.desktop fixed it. I use a command-line file browser (ranger), hence gvim could not be launched from it.

I suspect the desktop file came from upstream (though its included in our package and not downloaded from elsewhere). Could I request removal of the above line, or do I need to go upstream?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
From gvim/vim-runtime 7.3.206-1 to gvim/vim-runtime 7.3.266-1
This task depends upon

Does it work if you replace:
Terminal=0
by:
Terminal=false
?

Yes it does.

I already made the change in trunk ( FS#25694 ). I'm not sure if it's worth rebuilding the package for this, especially that it's a split package.

I concur that not many would be affected, since this does not affect GUI filemanagers. No objection (from me) to leaving this till the next necessary rebuild (or update, whichever comes sooner). Thanks much.
