Description Adam Williamson 2016-02-16 01:49:04 UTC 
In recent Rawhide, the default GNOME Terminal color scheme seems to be dark grey on black. This isn't terribly readable. :P

To reproduce just boot a nightly - e.g. https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/work/tasks/3353/12993353/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-rawhide-20160215.iso , you'll have to boot with enforcing=0 because of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1308771 - and run the terminal.

For blocker process record - the dupe was proposed as an Alpha blocker. Criterion was not cited, the relevant one would be "It must be possible to run the default web browser and a terminal application from all release-blocking desktop environments." - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_24_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Required_applications .

Well not sure it meets that relevant cited criterion.  It is possible to run a terminal application just not really to run a usable terminal application on all of my laptops it is difficult to see the text on one of them it is impossible, but the terminal application does run.
Comment 5 Chris Murphy 2016-02-21 23:35:02 UTC 
I'd argue "run" implies that it be functional, because what's the point of the requirement if it can't be used? I'm +1 alpha blocker.
Comment 6 Andre Robatino 2016-02-21 23:41:10 UTC 
This bug appeared fixed when I ran my Rawhide VM today, so one of yesterday's (20160220) updates must have fixed it.
Comment 7 Bill Gianopoulos 2016-02-22 12:00:32 UTC 
I can verify this problem no longer exists.  Perhaps it was the gnome-shell update that corrected the issue?
