I'd like to report that the workaround suggested in comment #8 has no effect in Xubuntu 18.04. It seems the native xfce4-terminal is also affected. I thought I'd solve the issue by switching to a terminal that isn't built on GTK so I installed Eterm, only to learn that not only does the cursor not blink by default in Eterm, but there is in fact no way to enable cursor blinking. When did the world decide that cursor blinking is a cancer to be eradicated from the face of the earth?
