In this version (forgot since when), gconf uses d-bus somehow. As either d-bus or gconf are not working, gnome-terminal is getting some data it is not expecting. Fix the gconf/d-bus issue and gnome-terminal should work. Not sure if gnome-terminal is supposed to still work even if there is something wrong with gconf. For 3.6, the plan is to switch to gsettings (dconf). With gsettings, it will 100% rely on gsettings to not feed it bad data (gsettings will check this). -- Regards, Olav -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
