Description sjn+gnome 2001-06-25 10:52:38 UTC 
Package: gnome-core
Severity: normal
Version: 1.4.0.4
Synopsis: Repetitive crashes with gnome-terminal
Bugzilla-Product: gnome-core
Bugzilla-Component: gnome-terminal

Description:
I can''t seem to reproduce the crash in a predictable manner.

I do the foolowing things:

 1. start gnome-terminal (often several, using the right-click menu in g-t)
 2. ssh to a remote FreeBSD machine with redhat's openssh RPM, using the following command:

    $ /usr/bin/ssh -c blowfish -C -L1120:news.somewhere.close:119 freebsd.workplace.locally

 3. I start/resume a screen session (Screen version 3.09.05 (FAU) 1-Sep-99), where I ssh to a remote AIX 4.3 server, using SSH Version 1.2.27 [i386-unknown-freebsd4.1]. 

after a while of typing, screen changing, command execution, editing and similar common tasks, gnome-terminal crashes, taking with it any other terminals I've started through the menu.

It's quite irritating (this happens to me a couple of times every day)

Hope this helps! :)

This might have been caused by bugs in regexp handing in glibc. Can
you try upgrading glibc and see if that helps?
