Description Tomasz Wysocki 2003-10-28 13:38:53 UTC

Gnome-terminal crashes after Midnight Commander finishes copying files
when option to dynamically replace title is selected.

Steps to reproduce the crash:
0. Lanuch gnome-terminal (ensure you have selected the option to
dynamically replace title of gnome-terminal's window).
1. Open Midnight Commander
2. Dive into zip archive (tar.gz will be good also)
3. Copy all contents to some directory
4. gnome-terminal crashes, after all files have been copied... (And
window's title was updated with some junk characters... )
                                                                          
                                                                          
               
Expected Results:
Terminal should never crash!

How often does this happen?
Almost every time...
And than I tried to change option to dynamically update window's title
which remedied the problem.
And than to verify the problem I reverted back to previous setting, but
problem did not appeared again. ( and I'm very happy :)

But stacktraces may be useful ....
