Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 43-beta by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because: I believe that this should be fixed earlier that later. Update is stable - please confirm this is fixed in the next nightly. Thanks! Discussed at the 2025-08-25 Blocker review meeting: We grant a freeze exception to fix the broken backspace key problem, but not carte blanche for a version update for no reason. The fix for the bug should be minimal if landed during freeze. The new version may be an appropriate choice if the only changes between 0.81 and 0.81.90 are related, or reversions of unstable changes [1] https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/blocker-review_matrix_fedoraproject-org/2025-08-25/f43-blocker-review.2025-08-25-16.00.log.html This issue still persists in my system with version vte291-0.81.90-2.fc43.x86_64 Yeah, unfortunately it's definitely not fixed by vte 0.81.90. This was fixed on Sunday in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/commit/bb0e930f446812f4b15d97f1f26566006925f7ac which is also on the vte-0-82 branch. FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a (vte291-0.81.90-3.fc43) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 43. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a has been pushed to the Fedora 43 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. The above update fixes the problem for me. FEDORA-2025-e0eb7d591a (vte291-0.81.90-3.fc43) has been pushed to the Fedora 43 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
