This is a dconf problem, nothing to do with gnome-terminal itself. Yes, I see now that I cannot change other settings either like the wallpaper. Moving to dconf. And I cannot add applications to the favorites list in gnome-shell. My dconf database is acting like it's read-only. The logs contained this error: Jun 25 08:00:53 tarantula.localdomain /etc/gdm/Xsession[1685]: (gnome-settings-daemon:1900): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._g_2dfile_2derror_2dquark.Code17: Cannot open dconf database: invalid gvdb header And my dconf database was corrupt (full of nothing but null bytes): ~]$ od ~/.config/dconf/user 0000000 000000 000000 000000 000000 000000 000000 000000 000000 * 0077300 000000 0077302 I removed my corrupt db and updated the glib2 package to glib2-2.36.3-2.fc19 and now I can change settings again. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 975521 *** |
