Even if there are no official plans for releasing GNOME 3.8.4, some packages have recently been updated to this version number, including the GNOME Terminal application, in order to fix some major issues found in previous releases. Therefore, GNOME Terminal 3.8.4 fixes a memory leak issue, and a crash that occurred on session resume. Moreover, the application will no longer write to gsettings on each startup if migration is disabled.
