So, the linked gnome bug has this to say: "I found a posted workaround that seams to have fixed the problem: sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-gtk appmenu-qt"
followed up with: "Alright, if that makes the bug disappear, it's NOTGNOME. The ubuntu 'global menu' stuff is NOT supported; removing it is the right thing to do!" So... is this going to be a case of both teams pointing at each other, or is there someone that supports the appmenu/gnome-terminal integration that can track this down and definitively determine who needs to fix it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875070 Title: gnome terminal intercepts my alt key combinations when it shouldn't Status in Application menu module for GTK+: New Status in GNOME Terminal: Unknown Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: If I'm logged in to the "Gnome classic" interface then the "Show menubar" option is not respected and my alt key combinations get intercepted.
