Public bug reported:
After a fresh install (using the netboot install) of the 32-bit xenial
distribution, gnome-terminal fails to launch from the unity launcher, or
from an xterm.
If I try to launch gnome-terminal from an xterm I can read an error
message:
Error constructing proxy for
org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling
StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process
org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8
Some googling suggests this is because the locale is not properly set. I have
re-generated my locales:
