2016-07-08terminal: Fix gnome-terminal to work with recent versionsRichard Purdie1
Currently gnome-terminal just returns straight away, opening a terminal in a new separate process we have no insight into. For patch resolution, this leads to spawning many different terminal windows, for pydevshell, it just flashes a window up and then closes. We need to block until the command completes but gnome-terminal gives us no way to do this. We therefore write the pid to a file using a "phonehome" wrapper script, then monitor the pid until it exits. [YOCTO #7254] (also fixing do_devpyshell) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
