[EN] Terminal seg fault

[eriefisher]

I just did a dist-upgrade and there were several packages to update. For one was the grub packages so I was a little nervous. However, everything updated fine and survived a reboot.

On to the issue since. I use Tilda for my terminal most of the time but since the upgrade it seg faults. I know this because I used the xfce4 terminal to start it to look for errors. Tilda started up fine the shortly after that it seg faulted then the xfce4 terminal crashed. I assume it also segfaulted. I retried it all again, same result.

Anyone else having issues?

[unklarer]

I do not use Tilda.
But it was updated today libvte-2.91-0. Maybe it is related to that. If you want to look:

Description: GTK+ based drop down terminal for Linux and Unix
 Tilda is a terminal emulator similar to normal terminals like
 gnome-terminal (GNOME) or Konsole (KDE), with the difference
 that it drops down from the edge of a screen when a certain configurable
 hotkey is pressed. This is similar to the build-in consoles in
 games such as Quake or Half-live. Tilda is highly configureable
 through a graphical wizard.

Looks to be the same.

libglib2.0 has also been updated (several times?) in the last few days! Iirc today for the last time.
But it might be difficult to roll back, since it has a lot of dependencies.
Myself, I did not have a problem with the current version, though - at least yet.

[eriefisher]

I just now completed another d-u and a reboot. The issue seems to be fixed. Neither terminal is crashing. So far anyway.
