[Bug 1443273] Re: gdk_set_program_class breaks --class

 

This bug was fixed in the package gtk+3.0 - 3.14.12-0ubuntu2

---------------
gtk+3.0 (3.14.12-0ubuntu2) vivid; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/allow-overriding-WM_CLASS-from-the-command-line.patch:
    support --class even when the program calls gdk_set_program_class().
    Needed for gnome-terminal profile-as-app backwards compat (LP: #1443273)

Title:
  gdk_set_program_class breaks --class

Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit:
  Confirmed
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When a program itself calls gdk_set_program_class(), passing --class
  on the command line is a no-op.

  Gnome-terminal does this to change it's WM_CLASS from gnome-terminal-
  server to gnome-terminal. Many people use --class in a custom desktop
  file to use profiles as applications. While this is not needed in
  newer versions of gnome-terminal (it has --app-id now), it makes sense
  to support this for backwards compatibility.
