Bug#531877: gnome-terminal: Incorrect location when opening a new tab/window from a a remote location

[Julien Valroff]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.26.2-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

When opening a new tab/window, if the active window is a remote location (ssh),
the location of this new tab is /.

gnoem-terminal opens the new tab in the same location as the active window, but
might fail in that particular case.

It should at least be in ~/ if it fails to detect a correct location.

It used to work previously with 2.24

Cheers,
Julien
