Maybe not, it could be Jenux install script didn't include gnome-terminal in its packages download. I wasn't able to find it on the system. It could be gnome renamed that package too. Maybe systemctl disable gdm.service and on reboot you go into fenrir for the terminal work on a real console. If Jenux included a startx script that can first enable gdm then start gdm up that might work. Also see what happens when you try downloading gnome-terminal. It could be it's available for installation after all.
