[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#630759: xfce4-terminal: pref $TERM setting ignored

[David De La Harpe Golden]

Package: xfce4-terminal
Version: 0.4.7-1
Severity: normal


xfce4-terminal's Edit->Preferences->Advanced->$TERM setting
seems to be having no effect, no matter what string I put in,
the shell within the terminal only sees $TERM=xterm

This may be associated with a recent update to libvte9, though
that's just speculation based on timing at the moment.
