Over a year old and no update? Is there any work around? I received this error shortly after upgraded Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. Then I had a hard drive failure and had to reinstall Ubuntu 16.04 from scratch, and the error went away. Then, after the first apt-get upgrade and reboot, the problem came back.
Google shows some people have fixed this by reconfiguring the locales package. http://askubuntu.com/questions/608330/probelm-with-gnome-terminal-on- gnome-3-12-2 However, this solution seems to be hit or miss. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474927 Title: gnome-terminal crashes with "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" immediately after start Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: gnome-terminal crashes with "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" immediately after start ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: gnome-terminal 3.16.2-1ubuntu1 Uname: Linux 4.1.1-040101-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.17.3-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Wed Jul 15 17:38:31 2015 JournalErrors: Error: command ['journalctl', '-b', '--priority', 'warning'] failed with exit code 1: No journal files were found.
