Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.22.3-3
Followup-For: Bug #475174

I've experienced crashes when changing colour profiles. bug-buddy is not
triggered and I don't know why, but the following message ends up in
.xsession-errors:

(gnome-terminal:4519): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid uninstantiatable type `(null)' in cast to `GtkObject'

(gnome-terminal:4519): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid uninstantiatable type `(null)' in cast to `VteTerminal'

(gnome-terminal:4519): Vte-CRITICAL **: vte_terminal_set_font: assertion `VTE_IS_TERMINAL(terminal)' failed

I'm going to run gnome-terminal from within gdb in the hope that I can get a
backtrace.
