Package: ghc5
Version: 5.04.3-9
Severity: normal
Hello,
it appears that when you quit ghci, the terminal in which ghci
was launched will have some trouble.
Here is the way to reproduce a bug with command passwd launched
after command ghci :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[davy]$ ghci
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Loading package haskell98 ... linking ... done.
Prelude> :q
Leaving GHCi.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[davy]$ passwd
Then, you can't change the password because the terminal will only read
one caracter.
Using reset (from ncurses-bin) will solve the problem in the terminal :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[davy]$ reset
Regards.
