This is where my understanding of open-source implementation
fails me. My intuition would tell me that the quality of a
given open-source app would be as good as the best version
of it that's out there. So if Debian has a good version of
gnome-terminal (which it does -- I've never had the bug you
linked to), Red Hat would have a version that's at least as
good as the Deb version. So why doesn't it work that way?
