I experienced a similar issue today. I ran `snap install app` in my terminal. It popped up a PolicyKit login window and my terminal started filling with empty input lines.
Around the same time, I had this in my journal log repeatedly: gnome-shell: Object 0x5614373df110 of type IBusText has been finalized while it was still owned by gjs, this is due to invalid memory management. Therefore, I'm reassigning to gnome-shell and ibus. I don't think this issue is specific to gnome-terminal. You might eventually see it with a different terminal. I am using the default Ubuntu session on Wayland. ** Package changed: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Also affects: ibus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964442 Title: [jammy Regression] signing a changes file in gnome-terminal sends <Return> keys to the terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1964442/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
