I thought I would add the workaround I found which applies to Xubuntu
18.04 but possibly others:
To make the cursor keep blinking in GTK-based applications (which
includes gnome-terminal, xfce4-terminal, gedit, pidgin and many others):
1. Open Settings Editor from the Settings menu.
2. Select the
Taking a second look at my workaround, I realize now that the "Settings
Editor" is actually xfce4-settings-editor so this presumably only
applies to Xubuntu or a system which otherwise has xfce as the desktop
environment.

Apparently the issue with my example (PARROTS.JPG) is that the file
simply contains no EXIF data. It seems like a tool like jpegexiforient
should emit some sort of message in this case, ideally output to stderr
and return a non-zero exit code, since the whole point of jpegexiforient
is to get or se
It's worth noting that for some images `jpegtran` isn't able to perform
its lossless transformations cleanly due to the nature of JPEG encoding.
If you use the `-perfect` option it will fail on such images. You can
use the `-trim` option as an alternative, but as the name of the option
implies the
I really don't have much experience reporting bugs with large open
projects. I tried asking in what I thought was the correct venue but
didn't get a response. As long as people who were in my situation can
discover the solution via finding this report or the answer I posted to
the related question
Or perhaps such an addition wouldn't be appropriate because it only
applies to GTK applications and the xfce team would only want to include
such a control if it were universal? In any case, I'll try to bring this
to the attention of the xfce maintainers (and add answers to
askubuntu.com, etc).

It seems the symptom is specific to xfce, where the values in xfconf
seem to control the relevant behavior. The cursor blinking timeout for
GTK applications can be controlled by adding a new integer key
"/Gtk/CursorBlinkTimeout" to the "xsettings" channel.

Title:
org.gnome.desktop.interface.cursor-blink-timeout not honored
The blink time does seem to be a bit less than a half second. If I count
the seconds out loud it blinks twice each second with a little time to
spare.
"dconf dump /" doesn't yield any instances of 463, but does show 1205

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
