So I reverted 3 commits for gnome-terminal and 5 for vte to make that MIR less urgent. I am concerned about the long-term maintainability of this approach - the vte patch is over 1600 lines. gnome-terminal 3.22 and vte 0.46 have been tested in the GNOME3 Staging PPA for yakkety and zesty for months. I am not aware of any issues from that. This is slightly different since I haven't tested those versions without pcre2 until this weekend. The development cycle for gnome-terminal and vte has been fairly quiet so I believe it's safe to go ahead and update gnome-terminal to 3.23.90 and vte to 0.47.90. https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-terminal/log https://git.gnome.org/browse/vte/log The packages are currently available for testing at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/ubuntu/gnome3-staging/+packages?field.series_filter=zesty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1666264/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
