My apologies for not being able to make a note of the steps that I have done before I saw the crash.

* Is this reproducible?

No. I have not been able to reproduce this problem after that.

* If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
Not Applicable.

Kindly close this defect. If I see this defect again, I shall make a note of steps that might have caused. Also please let me know if there are any debug flags that I can turn on (specific to xfce4-terminal, that is) to be able to provide more information.

Can't add any further useful information but my installation is affected by this bug too.

I opened terminal and executed a few commands.
I went to the settings manager and changed the theme.
The option to send a bug report was displayed as I moved from theme to theme.

I've changed the status to 'New' as this is reproducible each time I have terminal opened and I change the theme.

This is on a fresh Xubuntu 11.04 installation. Installed from daily build of 2011/05/04.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Xubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. Please include, if possible:

 1. The release of Xubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd'.
 2. The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy package_name' or by checking in Synaptic.
 3. What specific steps should we take to recreate this bug? (as, there is no "change theme" in settings manager)

This will help us to find and resolve the problem.
