Eos-add-to-desktop disappeared with EOS 3.9 and gnome-terminal is missing on the desktop

[btreut]

with the update to EOS 3.9 today the terminal icon vanished from my desktop. Trying to recreate it with eos-add-to-desktop I was also not able to find this script. Where did both go?

Is this a bug or a new feature?

sorry for the late feedback: thanks, it worked on the command line. There were some obscure error messages, but it worked.
