Bug#604680: gnome-terminal: Corruption from text

[Neil McGovern]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.30.2-1
Severity: important


Hi,

It seems that since the last testing update there's occasionally some
nasty corruption appearing with text in gnome-terminal. I haven't
noticed this on other systems.

It does change colour depending on where the corruption occurs (eg: Blue
text appears as a blue corruption.

See attached files.

Thanks!
Neil
