It turns out this was an intentional upstream change: - https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal/-/issues/321 - https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal/-/merge_requests/94 After that was released, it was noted that the previous behavior actually *was* a feature, and that some users even expected it to work that way: - https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal/-/issues/350 There was a fairly quick follow-up to the 1.1.4 release with a 1.1.5 that included a hidden setting to restore the previous behavior, but as we see in this report, Trixie missed 1.1.5 😅 - https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal/-/commit/3fe9c8b3a5a74cd1a38bbfde614b46792a0cff2a The change is fairly small and IMO would be a pretty reasonable thing to try and include in a stable update (especially since it really is a regression in functionality from Bookworm for many users), but I am neither the maintainer of xfce4-terminal nor a member of the release team, so it's really not up to me (I'm just an affected user who also wants that old behavior back, ideally in Trixie ðŸ˜ðŸ˜…💖). ♥, - Tianon 4096R / B42F 6819 007F 00F8 8E36 4FD4 036A 9C25 BF35 7DD4
