No syntax highlighting: only one text color and style no matter what theme #2119

OS: Linux Mint 21 Guake version: 3.8.5-1 from Mint's repos. The PPA does not support Jammy and I don't know how to compile stuff. Repro Rate: Unknown. It works on my desktop PC but not on my laptop. Same version of Mint and Guake.

Describe the bug On my laptop PC, where I installed Linux Mint 21 yesterday, Guake has no styling for its text. Check out this screenshot: https://paste.pics/I4MMD

I installed Linux Mint 21 on my desktop PC last week and the exact same version of Guake has full styling for all text, cf. this screenshot: https://paste.pics/I4MLK

Expected behavior The Guake theme should highlight syntax.

Actual behavior No syntax highlighting regardless of which theme I choose. All text has the same style and colour.

To Reproduce

  1. Install Guake
  2. Do a bunch of stuff in the terminal

guake --support output:

$ guake --support Guake Version: 3.8.5 Vte Version: 0.68.0 Vte Runtime Version: 0.68.0 -------------------------------------------------- GTK+ Version: 3.24.33 GDK Backend:

Not completely sure what's going on here just from the information posted, but might have a hunch. What's the output of echo $SHELL for you on both machines?

mrmatteastwood commented 2 years ago

On my laptop, which is the affected machine, it's "/bin/bash". I'm afraid I can't access my desktop until Aug 29th since I'm on vacation, though. Does this already offer a clue?

Hey, hope you had a wonderful Christmas :-) Sorry I never followed up. I reinstalled Linux Mint on my desktop today, completely removing Linux Mint 21 and installing 21.1 from scratch and setting up all apps and configs from scratch.

Now, this issue also occurs on my desktop PC. The output of echo $SHELL on this PC is, /bin/bash.
