Bug#640826: bad arg to "-e" kills all terminal windows

[Eric Cooper]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal

I eventually realized that I need to use "sh -c ..." as the argument
to -e, but while debugging this I found that this incorrect form:
    $ gnome-terminal -e "sleep 1; foo"
causes all my open terminal windows to exit, rather than simply
producing an error message.
