Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

Following updates on August 22, 2008, the Gnome Terminal will not accept
a lower case 'a' key.  Capital 'A' works fine, and the lowercase 'a' is
accepted in every other application on my desktop including Tilda.

gnome-terminal is launched using the default launcher with the command
"gnome-terminal".

There are no parameters supplied to the application from the launcher.

I am using the default profile for the terminal.  The only changes I
have made are:

1) Through the Appearance Preferences tool I have set the fonts to the 
following:
     Application font: Sans : 7
     Document font : Sans : 7
     Desktop font : Sans : 6
     Window title font : Sans Bold : 7
     Fixed width font : Monospace : 7
     Use Subpixel Smoothing.

2) I have set a custom prompt in my .bashrc of :
     PS1=\[\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n\$

At the time the problem was noticed, the only application that had been
launched following a sucessful launch was Gnome-Terminal.

The lowercase 'a' is the only key that is not accepted by the Gnome-
Terminal.
