Package: stterm
Version: 0.8.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?

st, aka stterm in Debian GNU/Linux, is not selectable as x-www-terminal alternative.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?

I tested the command "update-alternatives --config x-www-terminal" with the stterm package installed, for which no option, nor indication that stterm was allowed to be set as it, was showed.

* What was the outcome of this action?

There is no possibility to choose st as default graphical terminal following this bases, for which dependent programs and/or applications may not work properly or require previous configuration in order to use st.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

The possibility to choose st as default graphical terminal.
