Description of problem: Random Terminal crash when closing tab with multiple tabs opened. The bug was not appears with fc7 (maybe this is gtk2/glib2/vte issue). Gnome-terminal also use vte but seems not have this bug. Also no bug with older gtk2/glib2 (just remember bug with xfwm https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243735 maybe both problems is connected) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Terminal-0.2.6-2.fc7 (also recompiled this and older versions have same bug) vte-0.16.6-1.fc8 gtk2-2.11.5-3.fc8 glib2-2.13.7-2.fc8 How reproducible: Open random number of tabs (15-30) using Ctrl-Shift-T. Then close tabs one-by-one using Ctrl-D. 90% Terminal will crash when closing some tab. Try several times. Additional info: gdb Terminal core (gdb) bt +++++++ #0 0x001ef089 in ??

Odd. Can you try installing the debuginfo and running Terminal from gdb and getting a full backtrace? ie: - yum --enablerepo=fedora-debuginfo install Terminal-debuginfo - gdb /usr/bin/Terminal - duplicate crash A look upstream doesn't show any bug like this reported, but yeah, it could be a glib or vte version issue thats in rawhide only. Thanks for the bug report!
Installed debuginfos: Terminal-debuginfo-0.2.6-2.fc7 gtk2-debuginfo-2.11.5-3.fc8 glib2-debuginfo-2.13.7-2.fc8 vte-debuginfo-0.16.6-1.fc8 Seems bug with input pty's handling...

Excellent. Thanks for the backtrace. I have reported this upstream to see if they can spot the issue. I suspect it's either a vte bug, or Terminal doing something new vte doesn't expect. http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3396
No updates from upstream! ;-( Seems Oliver's team ignores this bug.
Well, as far as I know Oliver doesn't have a 'team'... and it looks like he is moving and without net for a bit: http://foo-projects.org/pipermail/xfce4-dev/2007-July/023346.html Hopefully he will have a chance to look at it soon.
Seems no bug after update to today's rawhide with Terminal-0.2.6-3.fc8 Where I can check what is changed in 0.2.6-3 comparing to 0.2.6-2 ?
The only 2 items changed were: Add patch for CVE-2007-3770. Update License tag I sure doubt either of them are the solution here. I suspect it was some library it needed to rebuilt against and the rebuild fixed it then? If you can confirm this is fixed I will go ahead and close this. Feel free to file a new report or reopen this one if you see it happen again.
Just tested. 99 sure all is ok now. Please close this and also please inform upstream to close bug on their bugzilla. Thanks! ;)
ok, will do. Thanks again for the bug report!
