It's a bit weird that this hasn't drawn more attention yet. I just realized that this bug appears even in 10.04.4 with e.g. gnome-terminal 2.30. I understand that most people run their mostly personal boxes with world readable /home. But what's with server admins? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074539 Title: Opening Preferences shows read error for home Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When I open the preferences dialog of gnome-terminal I get a popup window (see screenshot) with the error message Could not read the contents of home.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1074539] Re: Opening Preferences shows read error for home
I'd like to add that 1) This bug can easily be reproduced by means of a standard Ubuntu Live CD. After booting the Live CD check that opening the preferences works without problems. Then enter the command(s) ls -od /home; sudo chmod 711 /home; ls -od /home which should show (apart from the date) drwxr-xr-x 1 root 60 Nov 6 2012 /home drwx--x--x 1 root 60 Nov 6 2012 /home Open preferences again and it will show the error message Could not read the contents of home. Permission denied. 2) I am sorry, but, indeed this bug must be caused by a component that gnome-terminal is using and not by gnome-terminal itself. In the meantime I found another program that shows the same error (soundconverter) and there are probably more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074539 Title: Opening Preferences shows read error for home Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When I open the preferences dialog of gnome-terminal I get a popup window (see screenshot) with the error message Could not read the contents of home.
