Description Stephane Loeuillet 2004-12-05 06:34:03 UTC

from gnome-terminal 2.4.x (and perhaps before) to 2.8.x, i had a bug with gnome-terminal, which comes from a bug in vte

it is fully explained there :
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122150
a patch is also available at the same place

it seems that vte is quite unmaintained and this patch won't make it upstream for a long time. it has already been applied in Fedora and perhaps all debian based distros.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

2.7.3 atleast has this problem, and seems to be the last version that is not masked.

added to vte-0.11.11-r3 . I can't rep the problem so I'm going to assume this fixes it.
