            Bug ID: 57429
           Summary: Wine fails to open a terminal window if a terminal
                    application is invoked from the file manager
           Product: Wine
           Version: 9.0
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
          Reporter: tobi17spam(a)gmx.de
      Distribution: ---

This is on Linux Mint. If Wine is invoked from the file manager (using an open
action), on a windows terminal exe, it doesn't open a terminal on its own (like
Windows would in such a situation). When run from an existing terminal, the
executable is run as it should.

--- Comment #1 from Eric Pouech <eric.pouech(a)gmail.com> ---
what likely happens is that Wine is launched without (unix) shell attached (and
no default in/out/err io fd from Unix size)

Wine decides (in that case) that the user doesn't want any visual display and
doesn't allocate a new console for display
(this also what would happen if you run Wine from within a CI pipeline)

changing the file manager action into "wine wineconsole <app>" should work
around it

HTH
