Comment 1 Christian Persch 2016-03-03 10:36:48 UTC 
Bug 1314143 is a dup but contains the crucial info:
org.gnome.Terminal[1421]: /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server: symbol lookup error: /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server: undefined symbol: vte_terminal_search_set_regex

gnome-terminal needs to be rebuilt against using --without-pcre2 (or just updated to 3.19.91).
Comment 2 Petr Schindler 2016-03-04 07:08:28 UTC 
I can confirm that with gnome-terminal-3.19.91-1 gnome-terminal starts.

Just for purpose of tracking I'm proposing this as alpha blocker as it violates the criterion: "It must be possible to run the default web browser and a terminal application from all release-blocking desktop environments."
