Public bug reported:
When attempting to activate the GNOME Terminal on my heavily-modified
Ubuntu 24.04.x LTS system, I have noted that the terminal emulator is
unable to launch properly after logging out of my first graphical system
and logging into a second, third, or later successive graphical system.
Even when operating on my vanilla GNOME desktop installation under Xorg,
I have noted that my GNOME Terminal is not currently in an operable
state. When starting an X session from a tty, I have also been unable to
operate the GNOME Terminal.
I had expected an operational GNOME terminal emulator, regardless of the
number of attempts or X sessions that the terminal had passed through.
Initially, the problem had been attributed to my initialization of VNC
desktops, but I believe I had later identified the problem as the issue
of multiple X sessions, regardless of concurrency status.
Output from `lsb-release -rd` (sorry if this issue tracker does not
support Markdown formatting):
