Description Zsolt Peter Basak 2009-05-31 11:33:30 CEST
Steps to reproduce.

1) Start Terminal
2) 'cd' to your home (or elsewhere INSIDE your home)
3) issue: sudo chown -R X:users /home/X
(X = user)

4) That's it, all Terminal will crash. (What is really problematic.. once it was during a compile and it stopped halfway..)

Here are some backtraces (log + grep ;))

Works fine here. Backtrace shows only references to libvte.so, so you probably can reproduce this in the vte terminal too. If it works fine in the vte terminal and not in the Xfce terminal, please reopen the bug, else fill a bug in Gnome's bugzilla against the vte product.
