Description Adam Williamson 2016-02-16 01:49:04 UTC
In recent Rawhide, the default GNOME Terminal color scheme seems to be dark grey on black. This isn't terribly readable. :P

To reproduce just boot a nightly - e.g. https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/work/tasks/3353/12993353/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-rawhide-20160215.iso , you'll have to boot with enforcing=0 because of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1308771 - and run the terminal.

For blocker process record - the dupe was proposed as an Alpha blocker. Criterion was not cited, the relevant one would be "It must be possible to run the default web browser and a terminal application from all release-blocking desktop environments." - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_24_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Required_applications .

Well not sure it meets that relevant cited criterion.  It is possible to run a terminal application just not really to run a usable terminal application on all of my laptops it is difficult to see the text on one of them it is impossible, but the terminal application does run.

I'd argue "run" implies that it be functional, because what's the point of the requirement if it can't be used? I'm +1 alpha blocker.

Comment 6 Andre Robatino 2016-02-21 23:41:10 UTC
This bug appeared fixed when I ran my Rawhide VM today, so one of yesterday's (20160220) updates must have fixed it.

Comment 7 Bill Gianopoulos 2016-02-22 12:00:32 UTC
I can verify this problem no longer exists.  Perhaps it was the gnome-shell update that corrected the issue?
