I couldn't reproduce this with the Raw Hide version of vte. Which version of the vte package do you have installed? (I suspect it was fixed in 0.4.9 along with various other cell initialization problems.)
i have vte-0.4.5-2. How can i get the newer version to check this?
Raw Hide (regular snapshots of the development tree) can be found at ftp.redhat.com:/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/. You'll need to update both vte and gnome-terminal at the same time because the version of the shared library has changed. If you have any copies of gnome-terminal running while installing the updates, you'll need to start a new copy using the "--disable-factory" option or close all gnome-terminals before starting a new one, otherwise the running gnome-terminal will simply open a new window. Given that you're using 0.4.5, I'm almost certain that this will turn out to be a duplicate of #67930.
Not able to replicate this with vte-0.5.3-2 and gnome-terminal-2.0.0.90-3.
