Ping ? Please include my patch in the Debian package, it will allow to close this bug as well as the matching Launchpad bug #1238964, and fix this bug for good in Debian and all its derivatives, including Ubuntu and Mint (people still complain about this issue in Mate GitHub repository too, although the issue there has been closed since it's really in GLib and not in Mate).
It would also allow to avoid potential issues on other DE/terminal combinations (at least XFCE should theoretically be affected as well) since the second version of the patch handles x-terminal-emulator and not only mate-terminal. Since x-terminal-emulator is Debian-specific, I think it's no use to forward the bug upstream, moreover we know that the Gnome devs are oblivious to anything non-Gnome, they'll most probably refuse to fix this in upstream GLib, so fixing this bug in Debian is the best solution for all Debian/Ubuntu/Mint users. Thanks in advance. Regards, -- Raphaël Halimi
