Description Ming Pan 2005-09-26 20:20:35 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open gnome-terminal
2. SSH to another Linux machine
3. Shrink the terminal window width (to create wrapped lines later)
4. View an arbitrary text file using "less", where you see wrapped lines
5. Resize the terminal window to expand the wrapped lines, then it crashes

Other information:
Always easy to repeat the crash if you ssh to another machine. It's harder to
repeat but possible to repeat it when you don't ssh to another machine and use
"less" locally. Using "pine" also crashes it, but "vi" does not.

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into
our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find.

Your gnome-terminal and vte are so old that 'ancient' would be a compliment.
Please upgrade to something recent, like GNOME 2.12.
