Dear Maintainer,

On a fresh installation of Debian 13 (Trixie), the default keyboard
shortcut for the terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) is broken.

The command currently stored in xfconf (channel: xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts)
is:
"xfce-open --launch TerminalEmulator"

However, the binary 'xfce-open' does not exist in Debian. The correct
command should be:
"exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator"

Executing the shortcut results in a "Child process failed" error because
the file is missing.
