[Bug 227664] Re: gnome-terminal dies on creation of a new profile

2008-10-16 Thread Stephan Henningsen
gnome-terminal --name foo

immediately shoots all gnome-terminal instances.  Is this linked with
this?  I can't find --name in the man page of gnome-terminal, but it's
in the man page of gnome:

   --name=NAME
  Program name as used by the window manager

I'm running: Ubuntu 8.04.1 and gnome-terminal version 2.22.1-0ubuntu2

You don't ask much!

Anyway, I followed your recipe and managed to produce the failure and a
crash report was created in /var/crash. In fact, I did this twice--I'm
getting to be an expert in crashing gnome-terminal. I understood your
message to require that I restart apport. That didn't work. The crash
didn't produce a report. So I did a total reboot--perhaps I only need to
log out to restart all the gnome stuff--and that did the trick. There is
no need to use Nautilus to find the report and double-click it. (And, if
you want to do that, you need to change the permissions of the report,
which are 0600.) There was a notification placed in the panel and I was
able to click that and, or so I was led to believe by the information in
the GUI, send off the report.

I think closing the bug report is the wrong thing to do. I'm attaching
the crash report, since the feature to send it automatically might not
actually work. Please reopen the bug report. Thanks.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or
challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these
instuctions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be
dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable
apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch
nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on
the crash report you wish to submit.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will
automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more
efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

2008-05-07 Thread Al Grimstad
I want to note that the abnormal exit has happened to a gnome-terminal
NOT started with gksu as well. I just haven't spent the time to find a
repeatable sequence of steps not using gksu.
