Does the package nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal
provide what you want?
Method of determining the new package (in case it's of interest)
I'm still on Xenial, which made some things easier, some harder.
First, try to determine what specific file (i.e. script, linked library or the like) is responsible for the feature on Xenial. The name of the file is likely to contain terminal
so search for that:
locate terminal | less
and within less
search for nautilus
, as a first guess (if I were more confident I'd have just used grep
).
/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libterminal-nautilus.so
seems the most likely candidate, as it's correctly located (within the nautilus/extensions-3.0
hierarchy) and reasonably named.
Check what package provides it:
dpkg -S /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libterminal-nautilus.so
It seems that it's provided by the package gnome-terminal
itself (which matches what I remember — I didn't have to install any special packages).
The online list of files provided by the gnome-terminal
package corroborates this:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/gnome-terminal/filelist
Unfortunately, /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libterminal-nautilus.so
is no longer provided by gnome-terminal
in bionic:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/gnome-terminal/filelist
If I had access to a machine running bionic (or could be bothered fiddling with the options for apt-file
to use an alternative sources.list
, I'd have used:
apt-file search /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libterminal-nautilus.so
to find the package providing the file.
As it is, I just used the online interface at packages.ubuntu.com
.
To check, nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal
does provide the needed file on bionic.

How this would have happened or methods to reproduce the problem.
Add Pop!_OS repository using:
Upgrade the system or upgrade/reinstall gnome-control-center. Use:
or
What happened?
In my understanding the unofficial derivatives of Ubuntu like Pop!_OS remove options of bug reporting because they don't want their users to report bugs in Pop!_OS directly to Canonical (this is quite obvious since Canonical is not responsible for fixing their bugs) and they might haven't created the bug reporting mechanism for themselves (at least via their distribution)(if they have I don't know since I don't use Pop!_OS).
So, after adding repository of Pop!_OS, Ubuntu thinks the added repository has an updated version of gnome-control-center, that's why when upgraded, it uses Pop!_OS's repository, downloads and replaces the default version 1:3.28.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 with 1:3.28.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.2pop0 of gnome-control-center and install 2-3 more packages. Clearly the latter looks like a modified version and thus doesn't have Problem Reporting option under PrivacyWhat to do?
The only workaround I think is remove Pop!_OS's repository and reinstall gnome-control-center
Note: Don't use
sudo apt install --reinstall gnome-control-center
since I got an error like Reinstallation of gnome-control-center is not possible, it cannot be downloaded. Moreover packages installed via Pop!_OS's repository will be there even after removing repository unless explicitly removed. So don't worry about icons and themes, you can still use that.
