Title:
  Background color leaks to next row when scrolling

Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

  The background (and possibly foreground) colour leaks to the next row
  when the output forces the terminal to scroll down while wrapping the
  coloured text.

  Reproduction is relatively easy:
  1. Open terminal.
  2. Create a link to a missing file with a long path, so that it needs to wrap.
    ln -s /path/to/some/very/long/and/definitely/missing/file sample
  3. List the file (long format with color)
    ls -ln sample
  4. Continue listing until the terminal fills up, and starts wrapping and scrolling at the same time.
  5. Observe the new lines background colour.
