Package: gnome-terminal Version: 2.18.0-2 Severity: normal I had to grep in a file looking for an accented vowel, and I could see that after I wrote the grep command (without executing it), deleting all the characters confused the terminal.
I wrote: $ grep molÃn then I backspaced it till deleting all the letters. Result: the cursor ended one space more at the left. I could see that if I write: $ greo áéÃóú and then I delete with backspace, the cursor goes 5 spaces more to the left than it should. With normal locale (e.g. in a newly opened terminal) this problem doesn't show. It seems that the bug appears for the setting of LC_ALL=C If I set "LC_ALL=", the bug desappears. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=es_DO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_DO.UTF-8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-terminal depends on: ii gnome-control-center 1:2.18.1-1 utilities to configure the GNOME d ii gnome-terminal-data 2.18.0-2 Data files for the GNOME terminal ii libatk1.0-0 1.18.0-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.18.0-2 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libc6 2.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgconf2-4 2.18.0.1-3 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.0-4 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.12-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome2-0 2.18.0-4 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomeui-0 2.18.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.18.1-2 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.10.13-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii liborbit2 1:2.14.7-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.16.4-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.10-3 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libstartup-notification0 0.9-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libvte9 1:0.16.5-1 Terminal emulator widget for GTK+ ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-13 A free electronic cataloging syste Versions of packages gnome-terminal recommends: ii yelp 2.18.1-1 Help browser for GNOME 2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
