Package: xterm Version: 256-1 Severity: normal My X resources set XTerm*eightBitInput: false, because (as noted in #326200 and #534192) that's generally a saner choice nowadays. However, a recent upgrade (presumably to xterm itself) broke that; alt-key combinations now yield non-ASCII characters rather than the expected escape sequences, which I have to remind myself to type explicitly. :-/
