This is still broken and has not been fixed in mate-terminal upstream, which
is where the bug is. From src/terminal-screen.c:
g_hash_table_replace (env_table, g_strdup ("TERM"), g_strdup ("xterm")); /*
FIXME configurable later? */
That ancient code comes from gnome-terminal 2.33.4 or earlier.
There's an unresolved bug report in upstream's bug tracker:
https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues/209
Also the proposed work-around (not a fix) is not good enough: it won't work
for cases in which the terminal is told to spawn some other program. (For the
same
reason, overriding TERM in some shell initialisation script is, besides
idiotic, also
ineffective.) Consider:
$ mate-terminal -x vim
This is not a contrived example, many application will launch a terminal in
exactly that fashion.
I'm raising the severity and reassigning.
Cheers.
