Comment 10 for bug 1337195

You were right. The Gnome guys literally "abandoned" Gnome 2, as they say. I had to check this, before I leave Gnome once and for all.

As many others I am confused since this Unity/Gome3/MATE/Cinnamon forking. But I think it's still better to fix a bug upstream than in every distro. In case of libvte9 the current upstream origin would be MATE, isn't it?

I saw that you already wrote your new patch request to https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues/2
So let's hope it will be integrated in MATE soon.

Thanks again for your engagement!
