[Bug 263637] Re: Gnome-terminal follows symbolic links instead of staying in the current directory when opening a new tab
I've just noticed that Debian carries a patch for reading the working directory from /proc if OSC 7 was not in use. This patch doesn't have the "let's look for $PWD in the environment" logic that was supposed to fix this bug.

[Bug 263637] Re: Gnome-terminal follows symbolic links instead of staying in the current directory when opening a new tab
This is still a problem in Ubuntu 17.10, if your shell doesn't use OSC 7 to inform gnome-terminal about the current working directory. In theory /etc/profile.d/vte-2.91.sh should set it up automatically, but for some reason that doesn't happen for me. I think that reason is because in Ubuntu gnome-terminal doesn't launch login shells by default, and thus /etc/profile is ignored. I don't know why the commits from 2012 that are supposed to check $PWD do not work any more. Perhaps a newer version removed them, when the OSC 7 was deemed to be the correct solution? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263637 Title: Gnome-terminal follows symbolic links instead of staying in the current directory when opening a new tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/263637/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this is still an issue in Ubuntu 12.04[.3] with the current gnome-terminal 3.4.1.1-0ubuntu1 package. Are there any plans for this to be fixed in 12.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263637 Title: Gnome-terminal follows symbolic links instead of staying in the current directory when opening a new tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/263637/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 263637] Re: Gnome-terminal follows symbolic links instead of staying in the current directory when opening a new tab
This happens all the time to me, because in my job I write a lot of research papers, all of them being in a Subversion repository. Since I like to use a different hierarchy than the other people I'm working with, I've got a separate directory with many symbolic links, organized in a different way (I store them by year). Each time I open a new tab, I'm back in the SVN repository.
