The gnome terminal application becomes unstable when using multiple tabs and emerging. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open gnome-terminal 2.su and emerge sync (or any functioning emerge, i.e. not -p) 3.open a new tab 4.try ls in new tab 5.close new tab Actual Results: the new tab is unstable, and gnome-terminal crashes when closing it. Expected Results: new tab should function like other tabs. I believe this is related to the patches gentoo add for portage. It took me a while to find out why it was so unstable, then I saw when trying to upgrade to fix it, that there were patches. Emerge was the problem (I think, yet to find another reproducable cause). I compiled same sources without the patches, and no problems at all.
Could you post the output of 'emerge info' and the version of gnome-terminal you're trying to emerge? I've got 2.6.1 on an athlon nforce2 system compiled with -O2 (among other things) and have no problems.
alan has the scoop, moving to needinfo until I see the output
