Please consider: unblock gnome-terminal/3.4.1.1-2 Grave bug #631968 was reported as "gnome-terminal: fails to start on kFreeBSD" but turned out to be a GLib bug, for which a fixed package is currently in my sbuild. Debugging #631968 was impeded by kFreeBSD gdb reporting starting a new thread as an "unknown signal" which misled the reporter into thinking that was the reason gnome-terminal didn't work (see #550361), by gnome-terminal's dependencies not indicating that it needs a D-Bus session (#691177), and by gnome-terminal exiting 1 with no warning message if it couldn't contact D-Bus (#691178). The latter two are easy to solve, so I cloned severity:important bugs for them. gnome-terminal (3.4.1.1-2) unstable; urgency=low * Team upload * Recommend dbus-x11: gnome-terminal's default usage requires a D-Bus session, and dbus-x11 is the recommended way to get one of those (Closes: #691177; related to #631968) * If unable to connect to D-Bus, warn before we exit 1 (Closes: #691178) -- Simon McVittie <s...@debian.org> Wed, 24 Oct 2012 10:56:17 +0100 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
