[Bug 241331] Re: Running a non-existing command in the background causes exit

 

The bug does not occur on Debian with
bash version 4.2+dfsg-0.1+deb7u3,
xterm version 278-4
and the de_DE.utf8 LANG and LC_... .
So, whoever has a chance to look for the error, take the diff...

Title:
  Running a non-existing command in the background causes exit

Status in “bash” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

  In Ubuntu 8.04, running a command which does not exist can sometimes
  cause an exit command.  Here is an example cut and pasted when gnome-
  terminal is set to "stay open on exit".

  richard@sepulchrave:~$ gedit test &
  [1] 13336
  richard@sepulchrave:~$ gdit test &
  [2] 13340
  richard@sepulchrave:~$ exit

  Other times  the exit will not happen but the command will return an
  Exit 127 status.

  richard@sepulchrave:~$ gdit test &
  [1] 13403
  richard@sepulchrave:~$ bash: gdit: command not found

  [1]+  Exit 127                gdit test
  richard@sepulchrave:~$ gdit test &
  [1] 13405
  richard@sepulchrave:~$ exit

  Package is
  gnome-terminal:
