Description Dana Mison 2016-08-30 01:04:28 UTC
Description of problem:

Dragging a tab from one window to another (or dropping in the original) crashes terminal instead of moving the tab, if you drop it in the "shell" area of the terminal.  

Workaround: If the window you are dragging to already has multiple tabs you can drop it onto the tab-bar element and that works OK.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-terminal-3.20.2-2.fc24.x86_64

How reproducible:
Very.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch gnome-terminal
2. create a new tab (ctrl-shift-t)
3. drag the tab, but drop it in the original window instead of outside of it.  OR drag it & drop it in another gnome-terminal window

Actual results:
gnome-terminal crashes

Expected results:
the tab should be attached to the window it was dropped in regardless of the area.

Additional information:

Worked as expected in Fedora 22.

Same gnome-terminal version on F24, also broken for me.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 22:44:05 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 16:55:04 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
