[Pkg-lxde-maintainers] Bug#594762: lxterminal miscalculates window size, keeping free space at right and bottom

Package: lxterminal
Version: 0.1.8-2
Severity: normal

After upgrading from lenny to squeeze, my lxterminal started
behaving in a somewhat strange way.  There's now almost whole
line at the bottom that's not used, and almost whole column
at the right. Number of actual lines X columns displayed is
one less than should be displayed according to X window
size (when resizing a window, my window manager reports
number of lines X columns in a window, and that size is one
more than actually displayed).

Typical screenshot of LXTerminal window (with terminus 14 font)
is attached.

Note that changing fonts does not fix the issue.

Note also that - apparently - it is not lxterminal itself that
started the issue.  Before upgrade, I had the same version of
lxterminal (1.8), but all the rest were upgraded - libraries,
defoma and so on.  But that upgrade did not affect other
terminal emulators - xterm, urxvt, gnome-terminal all behaves
as before.
