Raspberry Pi OS • Failed to execute child process "xterm"

I had a bash script which had been working, via Connect (screen sharing mode) for months, troublefree.
Suddenly it starts failing today, with:
Failed to execute child process "xterm"
The only thing I did yesterday was a full (fool) package update.....

Any known fixes or suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
