Bug Description

Binary package hint: yakuake

In the upper left corner there is a tab labeled "No text", with four more like it hidden behind an expanding handle. This is separate from Yakuake's own tab bar. First I thought this was a rendering error, when it was in fact the label "No text" in a black font on a black background covering my white/grey terminal text.

If I click this tab, it offers to open the location in Dolphin and to close the tab. Picking "close the tab", the current tab closes, and Yakuake's tab bar updates to reflect this. If I close the *last* tab this way, a new tab is created (so as to not have a terminal with no tabs open), and the "No text" dummy tabs disappear until the next session when they return.

If you have a black terminal background, it's only visible if you select an empty area (which inverts the selection making the background grey/white). If you have a white background, it's very obvious.

This is with Jaunty's Yakuake, package version 2.9.4-0ubuntu1. Attaching screenshots.

This problem has been fixed shortly after 4.3.1 had been tagged, so it's not in the currently available version in Kubuntu.

Is it possible to pull in this bug fix?
