Hi,

I'm wondering whether this bug has been fixed in natty. Does anybody
know how to check the status? If it is fixed, how to update the
related packages?

It was fixed in vte 0.26.2 and 0.27.1, Natty uses 0.27.90. The package to check is libvte9, which in Natty should be at 1:0.27.90-0ubuntu1. You can verify by running 'aptitude show libvte9'.

Here is the output. But I still get the gnome-terminal error "failed
to create pipe for communicating with child process" (note that this
is the same as Bug 663364, because somebody report this bug but then
considered as duplicate of 663364).

Since vte's version Natty is later than 0.26.2 and 0.27.1, I should
expect the bug has been fixed in Natty. Why do I still see the error
on my ubuntu system?

Description: Terminal emulator widget for GTK+ 2.0 - runtime files
The VTE library inserts terminal capability strings into a trie, and then uses
it to determine if data received from a pseudo-terminal is a control sequence
or just random data. The sample program "interpret" illustrates more or less
what the widget sees after it filters incoming data.
