Description Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2008-11-01 22:47:46 CET 
The panel is unable to spawn "exo-open" commands anymore:

    exo-open: Unknown option --launch TerminalEmulator.

   exo-open: Unknown option --launch WebBrowser.

And that's with the default config.

I suspect this is a regression introduced by rev. 28562

Confirmed.

Workaround : 
The problem seems to be the number of args. If I replace "exo-open -launch MailReader" by a script which calls "exo-open -launch MailReader" it works

Jup was not a good fix, we now quote commands when selecting an application.
