I checked the binaries in Mint 17 MATE (which is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS):
The patch for "vte_terminal_set_alternate_screen_scroll" is in package libvte9 (GTK 2), in libvte-2.90-9 (GTK 3) and in gnome-teminal, but not in mate-terminal! So the problem seems to be in mate-terminal only. strings /usr/lib/libvte.so.9 | grep screen_scroll strings /usr/lib/libvte2_90.so.9 | grep screen_scroll strings /usr/bin/gnome-terminal | grep screen_scroll strings /usr/bin/mate-terminal | grep screen_scroll -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1337195 Title: MATE terminal: mouse scroll doesn't work in certain console apps (e.g. man) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-terminal/+bug/1337195/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
