Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
After today's dist-upgrade I restarted my desktop and ended up with totally unusable terminals. I got black text on almost-black background, huge font size, the scrollbar and menu bar were back, etc. I found out that the reason for this was that the default profile was set to "Ambience" now, automatically. Can we please _not_ change the theme by default if the user customized it? This is a direct violation of the "golden rule".. I suppose this is a bad interaction between 02_rename_default_profile.patch and 04_change_fallback_profile.patch ? $ LANG= gconftool -R /apps/gnome-terminal /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles: /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Ambiance: default_size_columns = 80 background_type = transparent background_color = #30300A0A2424 scroll_on_output = false visible_name = Ambiance scrollback_lines = 512 scroll_background = true use_system_font = false background_darkness = 0.94999998807907104 silent_bell = false allow_bold = true delete_binding = escape-sequence login_shell = false use_skey = true word_chars = -A-Za-z0-9,./?%&#:_...@~ default_show_menubar = true icon = title = Terminal bold_color_same_as_fg = true use_theme_colors = false bold_color = #000000000000 custom_command = scrollbar_position = right default_size_rows = 24 cursor_shape = block palette = #2E2E34343636:#CCCC00000000:#4E4E9A9A0606:#C4C4A0A00000:#34346565A4A4:#757550507B7B:#060698209A9A:#D3D3D7D7CFCF:#555557575353:#EFEF29292929:#8A8AE2E23434:#FCFCE9E94F4F:#72729F9FCFCF:#ADAD7F7FA8A8:#3434E2E2E2E2:#EEEEEEEEECEC scroll_on_keystroke = true title_mode = replace update_records = true exit_action = close use_custom_command = false cursor_blink_mode = system background_image = backspace_binding = ascii-del foreground_color = #FFFFFFFFFFFF font = Monospace 9 scrollback_unlimited = false /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default: default_size_columns = 80 background_type = solid background_color = #FFFFFFFFDDDD scroll_on_output = false visible_name = Vorgabe scrollback_lines = 512 scroll_background = true alternate_screen_scroll = true use_system_font = false background_darkness = 1 silent_bell = true allow_bold = true delete_binding = escape-sequence login_shell = false use_skey = true word_chars = -A-Za-z0-9,./?%&#:_...@~ default_show_menubar = false icon = title = Terminal bold_color = #000000000000 bold_color_same_as_fg = true use_theme_colors = true custom_command = scrollbar_position = hidden default_size_rows = 24 cursor_shape = block palette = #2E2E34343636:#CCCC00000000:#4E4E9A9A0606:#C4C4A0A00000:#34346565A4A4:#757550507B7B:#060698209A9A:#D3D3D7D7CFCF:#555557575353:#EFEF29292929:#8A8AE2E23434:#FCFCE9E94F4F:#72729F9FCFCF:#ADAD7F7FA8A8:#3434E2E2E2E2:#EEEEEEEEECEC scroll_on_keystroke = true update_records = true title_mode = replace exit_action = close use_custom_command = false cursor_blink_mode = system background_image = backspace_binding = ascii-del foreground_color = #000000000000 scrollback_unlimited = false font = Monospace 9 /apps/gnome-terminal/global: confirm_window_close = true use_menu_accelerators = false use_mnemonics = true active_encodings = [UTF-8,current,ISO-8859-15] profile_list = [Ambiance,Default] default_profile = Default /apps/gnome-terminal/keybindings: switch_to_tab_4 = <Alt>4 paste = <Ctrl><Shift>v switch_to_tab_6 = <Alt>6 switch_to_tab_7 = <Alt>7 switch_to_tab_8 = <Alt>8 switch_to_tab_9 = <Alt>9 help = F1 close_tab = <Ctrl><Shift>w new_window = <Ctrl><Shift>n switch_to_tab_5 = <Alt>5 zoom_in = <Ctrl>plus prev_tab = <Control>Page_Up new_tab = <Ctrl><Shift>t full_screen = F11 set_terminal_title = (kein Wert zugewiesen) reset = (kein Wert zugewiesen) toggle_menubar = (kein Wert zugewiesen) switch_to_tab_10 = <Alt>0 switch_to_tab_11 = (kein Wert zugewiesen) switch_to_tab_12 = (kein Wert zugewiesen) reset_and_clear = (kein Wert zugewiesen) close_window = <Ctrl><Shift>q save_contents = disabled new_profile = (kein Wert zugewiesen) move_tab_left = <Ctrl><Shift>Page_Up zoom_normal = <Ctrl>0 zoom_out = <Ctrl>minus detach_tab = (kein Wert zugewiesen) next_tab = <Control>Page_Down copy = <Ctrl><Shift>c move_tab_right = <Ctrl><Shift>Page_Down switch_to_tab_1 = <Alt>1 switch_to_tab_3 = <Alt>3 switch_to_tab_2 = <Alt>2 ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Mar 5 10:31:00 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes Package: gnome-terminal 2.29.6-0ubuntu2 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=de_DE.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-15.22-generic SourcePackage: gnome-terminal Uname: Linux 2.6.32-15-generic x86_64 ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson) Status: Triaged ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: High Assignee: Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson) Status: Triaged ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug lucid regression-potential ubuntu-une -- terminal settings messed up after upgrade due to forced profile change https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
