Submitted by John Frankish Link to original bug (#752372)
Description
Using gnome-3.16.x on a non-systemd setup
$ gnome-terminal Error creating terminal: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)
As per google, the two most usual problems are the locale and vte version, but:
$ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=
$ ldd which gnome-terminal
| grep vte
libvte-2.91.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libvte-2.91.so.0
(0x00007f58c8450000)
org.gnome.Terminal.xml is not installed, is it meant to go in /usr/local/share/dbus-1/interfaces? Even if I copy it there, gnome-terminal still will not run.
Version: 3.16.x
Resolution: RESOLVED FIXED
