[Bug 1388478] [NEW] gnome-terminal does not change window title after returning root account

 

Public bug reported:

If a user change user to root via sudo su command then exit root account
by writing exit, gnome-terminal does not change window title to default
one or profile's preferred title.

Steps to produce bug:
1- Open gnome-terminal -> title of the terminal shows user's preferred title like Terminal or if@machine_name
2- sudo su -> title of the terminal changes to root@machine_name
3- Exit root account by exit command
4- Title of the terminal remains root@machine_name

What I expect to happen:
1- Open gnome-terminal -> title of the terminal shows user's preferred title like Terminal or if@machine_name
2- sudo su -> title of the terminal changes to root@machine_name
3- Exit root account by exit command
4- Title of the terminal should change to user's preferred title like Terminal or if@machine_name
