On my system, doing "bitbake -c menuconfig busybox" pops up a gnome-terminal, I can see that the compilation starts but then the terminal automatically exits.
It turns out I don't have ncurses development package installed on my host, and OE's host sysroot isn't being passed to gcc, so compilation fails. The window automatically closes before I can read the error message since the '$' in the return code check needs to be escaped. Make sure the user can read the error message by properly checking the return code.
