That patch is wrong; generally the [0] argument can also be --; one has
to patch the code inserting the gnome-terminal.real to read:
if not self.args or self.args[0] == "--":
self.args.insert(0, "/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real")
That being said, --app-id and --class still do not work; all windows get
grouped under Terminal instead of my custom weechat desktop file (I also
patched out the prefix such that it actually uses org.weechat.weechat
instead of com.canonical.Terminal.org.weechat.weechat.

Title:
gnome-terminal stopped accepting arguments: # Failed to parse
arguments: Too many arguments
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have created a simple org.weechat.weechat-ssh.desktop to launch
gnome-terminal with an app-id, window title, etc using
gnome-terminal --window --disable-factory --class weechat-ssh --name
weechat-ssh --app-id org.weechat.weechat-ssh --title WeeChat -- ssh
-oControlMaster=no -i /home/jak/.ssh/weechat_ssh_id_rsa -o
IdentitiesOnly=yes -t [email protected] -- tmux attach -dt irc
This stopped working with the (AFAICT) gnome-terminal:amd64 (3.52.0-1ubuntu2
-> 3.52.2-1ubuntu1) update.
Even reducing the argument list further breaks:
jak@jak-t14-g3:~/.local/share/applications$ $ gnome-terminal --window --class
weechat-ssh
# Failed to parse arguments: Too many arguments
jak@jak-t14-g3:~/.local/share/applications$ gnome-terminal --class
weechat-ssh
# Failed to parse arguments: Too many arguments
