Title:
  vte use causes /tmp file writing during text scrolling

Status in Gnome Virtual Terminal Emulator:
  Confirmed
Status in “vte” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: terminator

  If you open gnome-terminal, and run:

  inotifywait -mr /tmp

  You can watch files in /tmp. If you cause a terminator window to
  scroll (ls -la /usr) you'll see many temp files being created and
  deleted. This doesn't happen with gnome-terminal, and I do not have
  "infinite scrollback" selected in terminator.
