  It is su, and it will be fixed in tomorrow's dinstall run.



I updated login last night during apt-get dist-upgrade but ctrl-c is
still broken.

Todd

What version of the login package?

Well, if you are still having a problem with ^C (note, you must restart
your su shell), then it isn't caused by the login package. I tested it
thoroughly, and it worked in bash and tcsh.

Yup, I rebooted the machine, etc, and even if I am on the
console and SU'd to root in a kvt window under KDE, if I do
tail -f /var/log/syslog or any kind of command, ctrl-c will not
exit the task.  Have to ctrl-z and then kill %1 to actually kill
the job.

My experience agrees with what Ben is saying - upgrading to the
latest login package fixed it on the machine I tried it on.
(I've not tried to see if the same problem occurring when logging in
via ssh has also stopped now, though).

Thanks for the fix Ben.

Joseph

Yep, ctrl-c wasn't killing dselect for me this afternoon, I upgraded last night.
I was su'ed in, btw.

Which package is su part of? That is, which package should one apt-get
install to get rid of this problem once the fix is in?

Thanks!

I've noticed this after 'su'ing, and filed a bug report (#54496)
against login. I've also noticed it after sshing in, which happens on
two of three identical boxes but strangely not on the third, which
I've reported to Ben Collins, but I'm not sure what it's down to.

I noticed this as well, I think it crept in in an update a few days
ago.  I first noticed it while tailing a log with -f, had to ctrl-z to get
out of it.
