Description Kamil J. Dudek 2013-12-02 19:14:43 UTC
Description of problem:

Gedit fails to load the Embedded Terminal plugin. At start it displays the following message:
 
AttributeError: 'GeditTerminal' object has no attribute 'set_background_image'

After the start the bottom panel option is greyed out.

This is because of the changes made to gnome-terminal, like removing the support for the background image and transparency.

I'm surprised it wasn't reported/fixed/noticed upstream. It might be faster for Fedora users to get the fix if it was reported here first.

The fix is actually very small, not even diff-worthy. Just commenting out two lines(48,49):

        self.set_background_image(None)
        self.set_background_transparent(False)

that used to set the now non-existent property. It doesn't cripple the functionality and it's not a dirty workaround.

I can confirm this issue exists. I am not sure what file is being edited to test the fix however.
