Description of Problem: resizing gnome-terminal while running 'man', 'less' or 'vim' causes a segmentation fault. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-terminal-2.0.0-3 How Reproducible: 90% Steps to Reproduce: 1. launch one of the apps listed above in a gnome-terminal 2. drag bottom right corner to resize 3. eventually it will seg fault. Additional Information: * hasn't happened while maximizing / minimizing. * other 'app + gnome-terminal' combos may also cause the crash, but the three listed above were the only ones used to reproduce this bug. * strace to follow -- though, I'm not sure how useful it will be since it apparently exits with a '0'

I'm guessing this is a vte issue, I could be wrong. Doing the strace with "-f" could be more informative. But a backtrace is really what's wanted. Don't you get the gnome crash dialog?
installing gdb helps a bit. :) Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-terminal' (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...

Various line offsets in the widget could be made to hold negative values if you resized the window, and this should be fixed in 0.4.8 and later.

fix verified: vte-0.4.9-2 CLOSING -> RAWHIDE
I am still seeing gnome-terminal crash on resize regularly with Red Hat 8.0: vte-0.8.19-1 gnome-terminal-2.0.1-5 glibc-2.2.93-5 I usually have several gnome-terminal windows open with several tabs each. I wasn't running man, less, or vim, at least not in the active terminal.

this is a many-many-dups bug (the ensure_cursor backtrace) already fixed in Rawhide.
hp, did you mean to close/dup this bug then? Also, what package in rawhide fixes this bug?
this is fixed in rawhide.
