This problem only shows up on the MATE desktop + mater-terminal combination.  Other terminal programs such as xfce-terminal are restored correctly.  Also running Xfce desktop with mate-terminal results in mate-terminal sessions restored correctly.  So as I said the problem only occurs with MATE desktop + mate-terminal.  I want to file a bug since this is annoying as hell, but I don't know what package I should file it against.

I don't run MATE, mate. But by a process of elimination, a core MATE package is probably your starting point?

Looking at the results of a DNF search, these look like good potential matches:

mate-common.noarch
mate-desktop.x86_64
mate-desktop-libs.x86_64

Or you could open it against https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues and hope it's routed appropriately.

Also, don't forget if this is a common problem, you may not be alone, so it's worth looking at wherever MATE track bugs upstream in case it's already reported.

https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/in-mate-1-28-2-terminal-restarts-with-wrong-window-size/28515 sounds similar to your observed issue.

You might want to rummage through:
- https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues
- https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/issues

And don't limit your research to open issues, it could already be resolved upstream but not yet have trickled down into Fedora.
