Re: gnome terminal not running in GNOME 3 Jessie - total disaster



Unimaginable! I reinstalled GNOME3, xorg, started from scratch, short of
reformatting the disk and NO.

In xterm,

$ 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 8

This bug is described extensively in

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=746415

I do have UTF-8,

$ cat /etc/default/locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

and yet I get the error.

I'm falling back to good old trustworthy wheezy.
