Package: ncurses-base
Version: 5.7+20100313-4
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-...@lists.debian.org
The changes to the kFreeBSD console and the kbdcontrol package (see
#605065 and #605777) need to be accompanied by changing the cons25
terminfo entry accordingly, otherwise ncurses-based programs severely
misbehave.
In particular, the backspace key deletes forwards instead of backwards
which is totally unacceptable. In Emacs, the delete key malfunctions as
well, inserting a tilde (~) instead of deleting the character under the
cursor.
The fix is to use the same definitions for kbs and kdch1 as on Linux,
namely kbs=\177 and kdch1=\E[3~ (stock FreeBSD uses kbs=^H and
kdch1=\177 which has been identified as a PITA in #605065).
