Bug Description

This has been reported by me as Bug#593198 to Debian BTS

copying the report:

Package: hotssh
Version: 0.2.5-1
Severity: normal

Sorry to report this from my Ubuntu box but at present I don't
have hotssh installed on any Debian one, with aptitude I see
that this problem persists in Debian/squeeze.

If installed w/o hotwire, opening a displayed and recognized
URL silently does nothing. I reported this to Bugzilla

Bug 590119 Nothing happens when clicking on recognized link in window

helpfull comment: you must ctrl-click <gr>

RTS shows that hotssh imports webbrowser from hotwire.externals.
This mandates at least a Recommends: if not a Depends: hotwire.

Thanks
  Siggy

Here's the trivial fix.

A better solution would be to put part of hotwire.externals into a separate package
both packages can depend on, but that requires deeper knowledge of hotwire
which I'm not using.

running into the same issue when using hotssh to connect to a headless Ubuntu 9.04 server... but installing hotwire is no option since it installs the entire desktop.

isnt it just a lib that needs to be installed?
