Description Christopher Scannell 2003-10-14 17:42:25 UTC

Package: gnome-terminal
Severity: normal
Version: 2.0.1
Synopsis: Crash resizing terminal
Bugzilla-Product: gnome-terminal
Bugzilla-Component: general
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3)

Description:
Description of Problem:

Running "less" in terminal window can cause gnome-terminal to crash when
resizing.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open terminal
2. Type "less filename" where "filename" is an ascii file that is
constantly growing.
3. Type "F" (similar to "tail -f") and resize window.

Actual Results:
gnome terminal crashes under RH8.0 (not RH9.0).

Expected Results:
Window resizes and "less" fills the new window with file output.

How often does this happen?
Reliably under RH8.0 (not under RH9.0).
