@EricG What version of Loki? I manually run
sudo apt upgrade
so maybe I'm ahead of what AppCentre is updating people to?pantheon-terminal
is no longer recognized on my system – Isaac Woods Aug 13 '17 at 18:44 -
I did a upgrade before commenting and another one right now. Still oantheon-terminal works, the other command doesn't.... – Eric G Aug 14 '17 at 7:16

pantheon-terminal
is still working. – stucash May 12 '18 at 13:27 -
