Bug Description
1.Description: Linux Mint 15 Olivia
Release: 15
2.terminator:
Installed: 0.96-2fakesync1
Candidate: 0.96-2fakesync1
Version table:
*** 0.96-2fakesync1 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
3.install as normal.
4.install proceeded as normal, terminator package functions properly, however in all user terminals history function ceased. After some google-fu, checked ~/.bash_history and found instead of $user:$user, it was root:root for ownership.
FIX: sudo chown $user:$user ~./bash_history
Uncertain as to why installation would chown history file, but it's sorted now, and all terminals recognize history file properly.
