Package: xterm Severity: normal Version: 210-3 For some reason, my most recent upgrade to xterm 210-3 has broken metaSendsEscape: true; support. It's most likely not actually a bug in xterm, because downgrading to 210-2 (the previous version installed) doesn't fix the problem.
However, rxvt doesn't show the same issue, so I'm kind of at a loss as
to what the actual problem is.

xev appears to return the proper things for alt and ctrl, and they
work just like they always have in emacs and rxvt.
Setting explicitely xterm -xrm '*metaSendsEscape: true'; doesn't do
anything either. [Although, that *should* be redundant.]
I'm using the macintosh us keyboard layout in my xorg configuration.
Let me know if any other information would be useful.
