Package: xterm Version: 244-1 Severity: normal Under some conditions, a word selection selects whitespace characters too. This problem seems to be new.
To reproduce the problem, I've attached a file. As said in this file: 1. Open this file in a 80x60 xterm terminal. 2. Do a Page Down. 3. Double-click on a "aa...aa" (but not one of the first five). -> The previous "bb...bb" gets selected too. 4. Resize the xterm window to 80x58. -> The window disappear! (Step 4 seems to be actually bug 541160: xterm segfaults.) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.5-20080922 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.9-24 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4 generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.5-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libx11-6 2:1.2.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxft2 2.1.13-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xbitmaps 1.0.1-2 Base X bitmaps Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii x11-utils 7.4+1 X11 utilities ii xutils 1:7.4+3 X Window System utility programs m Versions of packages xterm suggests: ii xfonts-cyrillic 1:1.0.0-7 Cyrillic fonts for X -- no debconf information
