+.B Force the desktop file to run with a specific terminal emulator
+.RB " " "gio " "(which is used to launch the " "arch-update.desktop " "file when the systray applet is clicked) currently supprots a limited list of terminal emulators (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/blob/main/gio/gdesktopappinfo.c#L2694)."

+.RB "If you don't have any of these terminal emulators installed on your system, you might face an issue where clicking the systray applet does nothing and reports the following error: " "[...] Unable to find terminal required for application"."

+.RB "While waiting for Gnome to implement a way to allow people using their terminal emulator of choice with " "gio" ", you can workaround this issue by copying the " "arch-update.desktop " "file to " "$HOME/.local/share/applications/arch-update.desktop " "(for instance, see " "The systray applet " "chapter for more details) and modifying the " "Exec " "line in it to 'force' " "arch-update " "to run with your terminal emulator of choice."
