Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.12.0-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
After I updated gnome-terminal from 3.10.1-1 to 3.12.0-2, it refused
to start.
$ gnome-terminal
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 1
$ /usr/lib/gnome-terminal/gnome-terminal-server
Non UTF-8 locale is not supported!
Even if this is the intended behaviour, silently breaking does not
seem very user-friendly. And I would certainly prefer to keep using
my non-utf-8 locale (because I have latin1-encoded filenames). At the
moment that means I have to use another terminal emulator.
Thanks.
- Felix

A few hours aqgo I opened a new bug report related to the very same problem
reported here.
I did it by mistake because it was the first time I was using reportbug.
Anyway, to be on the safe side, I am here to forward my bug report as a
reply to this bug.

Subject: Bug#750607: gnome-terminal does not start anymore since non UTF-8
locale is not supported

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.12.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
I am having the VERY SAME problem described in Debian Bug report logs -
#746415, "gnome-terminal: will not start with non-utf-8 locale" which is
still
waiting to be solved.
In the mean time I am completely unable to use gnome-terminal application.
I do not know how to support that bug and more than a month went by without
any
answer to that bug report (not necessarily a solution, just an answer) so I
decided to open a new one.
Thanks for your support!!!
Maurizio.

locale-gen + localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8" + reboot but no good
results.
In the end of the blog DESPAIR says
Today I got last update "GNOME Terminal 3.12.2".
And problem seems like fixed.
I do have the very SW version but it did not work for me.
Egmont, please feel free forward to bugzilla.gnome.org my tests you can

Just one more data to clarify the really strange behaviour of my G-T
installation: I do not have any non-UTF locale, as you can see from the
output of "localectl list-locales":
C.UTF-8
en_US.utf8
it_IT.utf8
HTH,
Maurizio.
PS What is the relationship between G-T and G-T-S? I think I usually run
G-T only: does it rely on G-T-S underneath?

Package: gnome-terminal
Followup-For: Bug #746415
Dear Maintainer,
I just solved my problem by running
'dpkg-reconfigure locales'
and - that looks to me the part which made the difference! - by asking the
system to set "en_US.UTF-8" as default value ("it_IT.UTF-8" is also available -
of course that means the row 'LANG=en_US.UTF-8' is added to
'/etc/default/locale').
A system reboot seems to be another necessary part (the very last one!) of the
solution.
After those steps, once I run the command 'locale' under my user I get a lot of
"en_US.UTF-8" while, before that, I got either empy lines or "C"values... and,
finally, gnome-terminal starts once again as it used to do in the past.
Thanks to the suggestion from
'http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=58860'.
I do hope this helps others.
Maurizio.

Followup-For: Bug #746415
i'm seeing the same error where gnome-terminal refuses to start in a
non-UTF-8 locale. In fact, on a machine that doesn't even have the
locales package installed, i can install gnome-terminal.
This suggests to me that there is (at least) a missing dependency
(gnome-terminal Depends: locales) and that gnome-terminal should also
produce a warning dialog box giving the user some clue rather than
silently terminating.

control: tags 746415 patch
I thought I send this message but I can not see this on BTS.
This bug is upstreamed and there is a proof of concept patch. Since
Debian jessie always supports C.UTF-8, this upstream proposed patch
should be the good patch.

============
As for Matthias Urlichs's problem
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=746415#55
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=764649
I do not know if he has 2 problems. This may be partly due to the fact
he only has locales-all installed without locale. I wonder what happens
if he create /etc/default/locale with
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
or
LANG=C.UTF-8
if he is missing it. (I realized locale package can be removed now if
locales-all is installed. This leaves me with POSIX ("") as LANG
value.)

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I had similar issue:
$ gnome-terminal
(process:2410): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.Error constructing proxy for
org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling
StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process
org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8
I was unable to fix it with `dpkg-reconfigure locales` or `localectl`.
I noticed that LC_ALL was unset so I added it to /etc/default/locale.
$ cat /etc/default/locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
Gnome terminal works now (after restart).
