[smlz <1290941@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm seeing this now for the first time after installing Vivid (Ubuntu
GNOME 15.04, gnome-terminal 3.14.2-0ubuntu3).

When not changing the default terminal size, the first console window
opens correctly (80x24). But all subsequent windows (created with Ctrl-
Shift-N) are just one character short (79x23).

When setting a custom terminal size in  the preferences, all terminal
windows are one character too small. So setting the size to 81x25 fixed
the issue for me.

I also quickly checked, whether the size indicator actually shows the
correct values when re-sizing the window, and yes, it does!

This issue might be worthy of opening a new bug report.

Title:
  gnome-terminal  ignores 'Use custom default terminal size' setting

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I have settings in gnome-terminal that say "Use custom default
  terminal size" to be 80x25.

  $ gnome-terminal --profile=Default

  launches a new terminal that is not that size.

  See the picture attached

  $ dpkg-query --show gnome-terminal
  gnome-terminal	3.6.2-0ubuntu1

  
  Not sure when this started happening, but I'm guessing it could be the same time that bug 1238111 was fixed.
