Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

Description Petr Šplíchal 2015-10-02 10:14:52 UTC
Description of problem:

It seems that the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl-PageUp and Ctrl-PageDown
are now caught by gnome-terminal even if there is a single tab
open. This prevents using the very same shortcuts in applications
running in the terminal, e.g. switching between tabs in Vim.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-terminal-3.14.3-1.el7.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open gnome-terminal window
2. vim -p one two three
3. ctrl-page-down

Actual results:
Nothing happens.

Expected results:
Vim jumps to the second tab.

Additional info:
This worked fine with gnome-terminal-3.8.4-8.el7.x86_64

To test:

a) Open 2 files in vim as:
  $ vim -p file1 file2
   ... and try to use ctrl+page-up/down to move between the tabs

b) Connect to a IRC network using irssi and join two channels:
  $ irssi
  /join #fedora-devel
   ... and try to switch between the channels using alt+1 and alt+2.

Comment 5 Debarshi Ray 2015-10-05 18:49:08 UTC
This will be part of gnome-terminal-3.14.3-3.el7 once I manage to build it after playing the tagging game.

Comment 10 Petr Šplíchal 2015-10-07 14:08:39 UTC
Great! I confirm this is working fine with the latest package.
Thanks for quickly fixing the regression.
