--- Begin Message ---Source: rxvt Version: 1:2.7.10-5.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, The fix for Debian bug #202497 causes rxvt to not report its initial terminal size correctly when queried with a standard ioctl() call. Only after the rxvt window is resized can the terminal size be retrieved correctly. The attached simple C program shows the ioctl call I am using to query the terminal size. This uses the TIOCGWINSZ ioctl to get the terminal size of the program's controlling terminal. When this program is run in a newly started rxvt, the terminal size is returned as {0,0}. If the rxvt is resized with the mouse and the program is run again, the correct updated size is returned. This appears to be a Debian-specific problem, as the patch that was applied to fix #202497 appears to be the cause of this behavior. When rxvt is rebuilt without this patch, the correct initial size {24,80} is returned. I don't fully understand the race condition mentioned in #202497, but it is implied that the patch applied is only a band-aid and not a real fix. The patch clearly introduces this undesired reproducible behavior into rxvt for Debian users, so I would like to see it removed, but I can't comment on the original problem with the terminal dimensions. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <termios.h> #include <unistd.h> int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { struct winsize winsize; if (ioctl (STDIN_FILENO, TIOCGWINSZ, &winsize) != 0) { perror ("termsize"); exit (EXIT_FAILURE); } else { printf ("winsize = struct { ws_row = %hu, ws_col = %hu }\n", winsize.ws_row, winsize.ws_col); } return EXIT_SUCCESS; }
