Public bug reported:
With Ubuntu 14.04 I could Ctrl-Shift-N in my gnome-terminal and another
terminal window came up with the same working directory. When I upgraded
to 16.04.1, the new terminal window now always uses $HOME as working
directory. I want the 14.04 behavior.
This has nothing to do with sourcing /etc/profile.d/vte.sh. Fish does
this correctly as I can observe directory changes in the title bar. If I
uncheck the custom command box in my gnome-terminal profile, the new
terminal window correctly uses the current directory. However, it uses
my system default shell: bash.
For some reason gnome-terminal does not set the working directory if I
use a custom command.
