Package: irssi
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: normal

I have a GNOME Shell custom keybinding with the command set to:
x-terminal-emulator -geometry 80x24+0-0 -e irssi
(where x-terminal-emulator is /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper in my case).

About half the time when I launch this, irssi crashes like this:

#0  0x00005630bc79651a in mainwindows_resize (width=<optimized out>, 
height=<optimized out>) at mainwindows.c:833
#1  0x00005630bc79cecc in term_resize_dirty () at term.c:85
#2  0x00005630bc7a4d69 in dirty_check () at irssi.c:119
#3  0x00005630bc78a09a in dirty_check () at irssi.c:199
#4  textui_finish_init () at irssi.c:199
#5  main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>) at irssi.c:336

I think this might be irssi trying to resize before it has an active
window. mainwindows.c:833 is:

831     /* if we lost our active mainwin, get a new one */
832     if (active_mainwin == NULL && !quitting) {
833             active_mainwin = WINDOW_MAIN(active_win);
834             window_set_active(active_mainwin->active);
835     }

and gdb says active_win is NULL at this point.
