Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
This seems to really be a bash script problem: trying to start a missing program in the background causes bash to exit (apparently without error??). The effect is that gnome-terminal exits, even though it should not. Suppose you do not have klines installed. Type: klines & It should give the "sudo apt-get install klines" message and then exit, right? Well, it does, but it also exits bash, meaning the terminal closes. Not good.
