Both have been fixed in the meantime, so I am taking the liberty to close this bug as well. Thanks for chasing, Sven. Unless Jiri has any objection and can reproduce the problem, I am happy with it. Yes, that is correct. In fact I have learned about the konsole problem early and patched it, then forgot about it all. Sorry for the inconvenience. Regards Jiri Palecek

The columns are not aligned, and the dialog boxes fail to use the width of the screen. See this screenshot with what should be a search dialog: Other console applications (mc, emacs) don't exhibit this behaviour, so I'm filing this to aptitude. Please have a look at it. Thanks for the report. I have the same versions installed and for me it works perfectly. $ aptitude search -F '%p %v' --disable-columns '~i~n^(aptitude|libncursesw5)$' aptitude 0.8.10-6 aptitude-common 0.8.10-6 aptitude-dbgsym 0.8.10-6 libncursesw5 6.1-1 libncursesw5-dev 6.1-1 This will require more investigation. Maybe the locale/encoding? Locale: LANG=cs_CZ, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ (charmap=ISO-8859-2), LANGUAGE= (charmap=ISO-8859-2) No, it isn't this (checked that). In fact, after finding that dialog is also affected by this problem and dissecting the escape codes sent to the terminal, I can conclude that the true culprit is Konsole. xterm and text console all work well. The problem seems to be the escape sequence ESC [ 7 b. Problem is, I can't find anywhere documented what it does, but it should be something like repeat last char 7 times. Regards Jiri Palecek
