Bug Description

Binary package hint: guake

After upgrading to 10.10, Guake experiences the following problems when run from the application menu: Strips colors (all text is now white), messes up formatting of bashrc effects (I have folder and time in my bashrc, but they are not in the right places), and it will not allow console applications to be run (the error is: "Error opening terminal: unknown").

These problems are not there when guake is run from another terminal window. My formatting is correct, and mocp will be allowed to run.
