Does anyone know, how I can configure the gnome terminal emulator
As you can see on the screenshot, I opened a new tab in a vertically tiled window from the path
tilix
to open a new tab automatically in a new window?

dir1/dir2/dir3/
. Every new tab gets opened in the users working directory. How can I make tilix
to open new-tabs in this same directory from witch I opened it?

bash: /usr/bin/sed: No such file or directory

On a test server I purposefully deleted
?????
in /
- I was expecting the symlink /lib64
and the /media
directory to be deleted. All went well (everything broke), but then I was curious about the output below:
[root@testserver /]# ls
bin boot dev etc home lib lib64 media mnt opt proc rh_share3 root run sbin srv sys tmp usr var
[root@testserver /]# rm -rf ?????
bash: /usr/bin/sed: No such file or directory
[root@testserver /]# ls
bash: /usr/bin/ls: No such file or directory
bash: /usr/bin/sed: No such file or directory
I see that some packages have sed
as a dependency, but I'm not understanding why it's calling sed
for something as simple as pressing Enter
[root@testserver bin]# rpm -q --whatrequires sed
krb5-libs-1.17-18.el8.x86_64
ca-certificates-2019.2.32-80.0.el8_1.noarch
dracut-049-70.git20200228.el8.x86_64
crypto-policies-20191128-2.git23e1bf1.el8.noarch
policycoreutils-2.9-9.el8.x86_64
authselect-libs-1.1-2.el8.x86_64
cups-filters-1.20.0-19.el8.x86_64
open-vm-tools-11.0.0-4.el8.x86_64
authselect-compat-1.1-2.el8.x86_64
dhcp-client-4.3.6-40.el8.x86_64
nfs-utils-2.3.3-31.el8.x86_64
autofs-5.1.4-40.el8.x86_64
Why does the line bash: /usr/bin/sed: No such file or directory
show up? Obviously sed
is considered missing, but why is it being called at all? It is also not mentioned if I just run a strace -o bash bash
. I know sed
stands for stream editor
- is every bash command run through sed
, or what else could be going on?
The OS is an OOTB RHEL 8.2 (Oopta) with a GUI.
**EDIT**
Below is the output of set | grep sed
:

How can I install Tilix on Deepin 15.11 properly?
I installed Tilix by using: wget https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/releases/download/1.9.3/tilix.zip -P $HOME/Downloads sudo unzip $HOME/Downloads/tilix.zip -d / sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ After running tilix in Terminal I get: object.Exception@../../../.dub/packages/gtk-d-...
I installed Tilix by using:
wget https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/releases/download/1.9.3/tilix.zip -P $HOME/Downloads
sudo unzip $HOME/Downloads/tilix.zip -d /
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
After running tilix in Terminal I get:
object.Exception@../../../.dub/packages/gtk-d-3.8.5/gtk-d/generated/gtkd/gtkd/Loader.d(125): Library load failed (libvte-2.91.so.0): libvte-2.91.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I went for the manual installation because
sudo apt install tilix
leads to
E: Unable to locate package tilix
How can I solve this problem?
_Edit: Other approaches._
Doing
sudo apt update && sudo apt install tilix
returns the same error, and
apt-cache search tilix
returns nothing.
Content of _/etc/apt/sources.list_:
## Generated by deepin-installer
deb [by-hash=force] http://packages.deepin.com/deepin lion main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://packages.deepin.com/deepin lion main contrib non-free
Files in _/etc/apt/sources.list.d_:
brave-browser-release.list
sublime-text.list
transmissionbt-ubuntu-ppa-groovy.list
brave-browser-release.list.save
sublime-text.list.save
transmissionbt-ubuntu-ppa-groovy.list.save
Doing
wget http://packages.deepin.com/deepin/pool/main/t/tilix/tilix-common_1.7.9-2_all.deb
wget http://packages.deepin.com/deepin/pool/main/t/tilix/tilix_1.7.9-2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i tilix-common_1.7.9-2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i tilix_1.7.9-2_amd64.deb
sudo apt install -f
leads to:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of tilix:
tilix depends on libgtkd-3-0 (>= 3.8.2); however:
Package libgtkd-3-0 is not installed.
tilix depends on libphobos2-ldc-shared78 (>= 1:1.8.0); however:
Package libphobos2-ldc-shared78 is not installed.
tilix depends on libvted-3-0 (>= 3.8.2); however:
Package libvted-3-0 is not installed.
----------
**Solution**
I did
sudo apt install apt-file
sudo apt-file update
And `
apt-file search libvte-2.91.so.0
` shows
libvte-2.91-0: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvte-2.91.so.0
libvte-2.91-0: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvte-2.91.so.0.4600.1
After this, the following worked:
wget https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/releases/download/1.9.3/tilix.zip -P $HOME/Downloads
sudo unzip $HOME/Downloads/tilix.zip -d /
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/

Running tmux sessions inside tilix terminal emulator
**Background**: I use Tilix as my main terminal emulator. In the Tilix preferences (attached screenshot), I have set it up so that when Tilix is launched, it will run this command: ``` /usr/bin/zsh -c "if [[ $(tmux ls 2>/dev/null | grep -q -E '^main.*attached.*'; echo $?) -ne 0 ]]; then tmux attach...
**Background**: I use Tilix as my main terminal emulator. In the Tilix preferences (attached screenshot), I have set it up so that when Tilix is launched, it will run this command:
This checks:
- if a tmux session named
/usr/bin/zsh -c "if [[ $(tmux ls 2>/dev/null | grep -q -E '^main.*attached.*'; echo $?) -ne 0 ]]; then tmux attach -t main || tmux new -s main; else /usr/bin/zsh; fi"

main
is running and a window is attached to it
- If it fails, it will then try to attach to the tmux session named main
- If that fails, then it will go ahead and create a new tmux session named main
and attach to it
- Else (If successful), just launch plain zsh
The reason for all this complexity so that when I launch tilix for the first time, it will launch it with tmux running and connected to it. Any **new tilix session** or **new tilix window** lauched will not create or try to connect to the existing tmux session named main. (Tilix has its own multi window and pane which is not to be confused with tmux sessions)
What I would like to know if it is possible to condense the codeblock above, or if it is possible to come up with a better version of the codeblock above.

No titlebar and no scrollbars in a gtk3 app in Plasma desktop

I'm using a GTK3 app called _Tilix_. It's a terminal app.
I have 2 computers with KDE Neon based on __Ubuntu 16.04 LTS__.
In one of them, _Tilix_ works ok. In the other one, no title bars and no scrollbars are painted. It is like they were transparent.
Investigating a little, I've seen it uses the gtk3 theme called _Breeze_. No theme customization.
I've tried to compare both computers, and to reinstall _Tilix_. How can I solve this? I think there must be some theme misconfiguration.
