Package: rlwrap
Version: 0.35-1
Severity: normal
In newer versions of rlwrap, Ctrl-D must be pressed twice to end the
command. More precisely: The effects of a Ctrl-D on an empty line are
delayed until any other character is entered.
Example
-------
$ rlwrap cat
<Ctrl-D> # nothing happens
<Ctrl-D> # (or any other input!) -- now I get back to the prompt
$
In older versions, Ctrl-D worked as expected, i.e. it had to be hit
only once to get instantly accepted.
Affected versions
-----------------
Interestingly enough, which versions are affected by this bug depends
on the method I use for installing the software, namely whether I take
the prebuilt package from snapshot.debian.org or build it myself. I
take it that my system and the Debian build system have/had different
package versions that fulfilled rlwrap's build-dependencies.
* Method A: (prebuilt)
- Download binary package from snapshot.debian.org, then
- dpkg -i <package>
*** OR ***
- Add deb lines pointing to snapshot.debian.org to
/etc/apt/sources.list (see method B)
- aptitude install rlwrap=<version>
* Method B: (building myself)
- Add deb lines pointing to snapshot.debian.org to
/etc/apt/sources.list:
