Bug#769947: mate-terminal: Segfaults after update
@Alex: do you think you could build mate-terminal from source with the
referenced patch included and confirm that the patch fixes your issues?
I tried, but I believe the necessary -dev packages are not yet in Debian:
$ ./autogen.sh
...
Requested 'mate-desktop-2.0 >= 1.9.0' but version of mate-desktop-2.0 is
1.8.1
...
if what's necessary to build is not too complex and it does not
interfere with my system, I'm happy to try- but I'm not sure of the
steps needed.
I also have a good workaround, so this issue is no longer so important
to me.

Bug#769947: mate-terminal: Segfaults after update
More or less, doing some trial and error I discovered that using
desktopConfig instead of defaultConfig fixes magically the problem.
https://github.com/alexpdp7/xmonad.pdp7/commit/037a44a8f7541fb3983ade528e34b4cfa0ea81a5
. I suppose there's some bug somewhere, but I'm happy for now- don't know
if Ben Whyall has the same problem or not.

Bug#769947: mate-terminal: Segfaults after update
Hi,
I just reinstalled a system today and managed to find the issue- I replace
marco with xmonad and that makes mate-terminal segfault.
I basically do:
dconf write /org/mate/desktop/session/required-components/windowmanager
"'xmonad'"
to do this.
So this is probably not RC by a long shot.
Thanks,
Álex

Bug#524576: Additional information on 524576
I think I'm seeing this, I've narrowed it down to Jabber (and Gmail)
accounts.
Maybe it's related to:
