Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

Trying to launch gnome-terminal with predefined geometry in the launcher
and HSIZExXSIZE is not honoured.
XPOS+YPOS works as expected.

Code:
gnome-terminal --geometry=100x32+15+70

Previous version worked correctly.

Looks fixed on upstream HEAD even though they didn't resolve their bug report yet. I guess that means that this bugfix will get synced into karmic when the stable GNOME 2.28 tarballs are due.
