I ran "yum update" on my Fedora 20 system a few days ago. I normally don't do this as something always breaks and in this case it was the Mate-Terminal. I already had a few terminals open so I can still use the system. Clicking on either the Terminal icon in the panel, or using Applications->Mate Terminal does the same thing: There's a message on the bottom panel that says "Starting MATE" that stays there for about 6 seconds and then it disappears. No new terminal is created. I can still use my existing terminals and I can create a new one if I run "mate-terminal &" in it. I have looked at the Properties dialog of the Terminal and nothing seems out of place (i.e. looks just like my other systems).
I have not rebooted yet in case there is something I should do first. Any ideas? Of course a reboot might just fix this but I wanted to ask before I did that. Or maybe a reboot is needed after an update and I am too ignorant to know this. BTW, I tried to find this problem on the net but did not have any luck. Also, this is not a critical issue, the system seems fine otherwise.
