Since gnome-terminal is one single process for all your terminal windows and tabs, upon a crash all the gnome-terminal windows disappear, easily causing loss of precious unsaved work. To easily reproduce: 1. Open at 2 (or more) gnome-terminal windows, and in one of them 2 (or more) tabs. 2. In one of these tabs, make the title change constantly: while sleep 0.1; do echo -ne "\e]0;$(date +%S)\a"; done 3. Drag and drop this tab (with the changing title) to another gnome- terminal window. (Don't drag it within the same window, that won't make it crash.) Repeat this step multiple times. After a few (usually less than 10) drag-n-drop actions, gnome-terminal crashes. Please backport this fix from mainstream: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-terminal/commit/?id=f65261a ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: gnome-terminal 3.6.2-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-29.53-generic 3.13.11.2 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Jun 19 01:37:45 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-05-30 (749 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) SourcePackage: gnome-terminal UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2014-03-25 (85 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/1331864/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
