Thank you for your bug report, that should be reported upstream on gitlab.gnome.org though
** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- 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/1851546 Title: Debug spew to stderr at startup Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: gnome-terminal writes debug messages to stderr every time it starts up: # _g_io_module_get_default: Found default implementation gvfs (GDaemonVfs) for ‘gio-vfs’ # _g_io_module_get_default: Found default implementation dconf (DConfSettingsBackend) for ‘gsettings-backend’ # watch_fast: "/org/gnome/terminal/legacy/" (establishing: 0, active: 0) # unwatch_fast: "/org/gnome/terminal/legacy/" (active: 0, establishing: 1) # watch_established: "/org/gnome/terminal/legacy/" (establishing: 0) This pollutes the terminal when a script explicitly invokes gnome- terminal to open another window. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1. Open a terminal and type "gnome-terminal" RESULTS: Debug messages appear on the first terminal EXPECTED RESULTS: Nothing should appear on stderr or stdout of gnome- terminal itself, unless there is an actual error. P.S. Presumably a debug build escaped and was released. To prevent this from happening, it would be a good idea to add a test which checks that gnome-terminal writes nothing to std* in normal (non- error) cases.
