OK, so for the test of the x-terminal-emulator, you will need to properly install the trunk. I can only give you instructions for Ubuntu, so I really hope you're running that.

    $ cp ~/.config/terminator/config ~/.config/terminator/config_bak
    $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome-terminator/nightly
    $ sudo apt-get update
    $ sudo apt-get install terminator

(Do not type the $, it's just to clarify it's a command)

Make sure to exit any running instances of Terminator at this point. If you don't there is a good chance that the shortcut may just launch a new window attached to the old process/version.

Now try launching it with the keyboard shortcut, and check to see if the icon is now sharp.

Once done, if you're feeling brave, you can continue to run nightly. I think I'm fairly good at not breaking things in trunk. (Crosses fingers)

If not, disable the PPA in your software manager, remove the new version and install the old version afterwards. You should also copy the backed up config back to the normal filename.
