Hi Mira,

AFAICT, yes. See here:
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/commit/1be7bfe59f1c71b12fe60a26a3aa313b9a599e31

However, the fix will only come with the new release, 7.8.4. In the
meantime, you can download the source code and compile release branch to
get this bugfix. See here:
https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Compile_and_Install_Ubuntu#Quick_instructions.
After installing dependencies, go to section b)

Others using Ubuntu or Mint will know better if the instructions are up to
date

best,
Vero
