Description Mikel Olasagasti 2009-05-10 21:21:30 UTC

As seen on upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565328 with gnome-terminal-2.26.1 each time I open a new tab CWD is / instead of $HOME or previous working directory.

Upstream trunk has a couple of patches but still doesn't fix 100%

I'm completely unable to reproduce this using any of the test cases in the upstream bug, using gnome-terminal-2.26.3.1.  Does this still happen for you?  If so, could you post steps to reproduce?

@Daniel: 

1)° Open gnome-terminal
2)° su 
3)° cd /usr/portage/distfiles  # (for example)
4)° Open a new tab

--> the new tab is opened on /

Fixed into the main tree with a revision bump for the last version, ie 2.26.3.1-r1. 

Thanks for reporting
