Comment 37 for bug 321176

I agree. If it was just alarm-clock, it'd been ok. It's not a critical application, and it's not supported. But it isn't just alarm-clock. This also happens if you try to strace something in gnome-terminal at least. Other things cause this to happen as well. I think this bug should've been marked with high priority and fixed before release. I hope it'll be fixed quickly, cause this is really annoying, and as you said, people who are running alarm-clock on startup, will have a useless system unless they're able to figure this out. Not everyone will be able to.
