Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

I have disabled the menu in gnome-terminal, but one of today's updates broke it (I'm running the "classic gnome" desktop).

The right-click menu still shows "Show menu" as disabled, but the menu bar in the window is visible. Selecting the first time doesn't seem to do anything (the "tick mark" shows up), selecting it the second time removes the menu.

When I then switch to another window and back to the terminal, it has grown a menu bar I don't want.

I've set the preferences to now show a menubar. I open a gnome-terminal and the menubar is shown. I select "view->menubar" twice to make the menubar go away. As soon as I open a new gnome-terminal, the menubar is back in the new gnome-terminal and suddenly appears in all other gnome-terminals. Even ones that are already opened.
