Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.14.2-1
Severity: normal
After installing unstable, gnome-terinal no longer recognizes the Up-arrow key as "move backwards in history," even though it continues to work correctly in other terminal emulators such as Xterm and in non-GUI terminal windows. Downgrading to stable libvte9 didn't fix the problem.
Workaround: Downgrade to stable gnome-terminal and gnone-terminal-data. I am now running on those packages.
