Package: rxvt Version: 1:2.7.10-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When using rxvt, until recently -geometry settings were inherited by called programs. E.g., when calling rxvt -geometry 80x50 -e man man the man-page was displayed over 80 lines. Currently, only about 25 lines are displayed with the man page help line (i.e., the line showing ... press h for help, etc) on the last line, in the middle of the window. When paging through the man-page the page layout is completely lost, and subsequent pages are shown below the initial 25 lines. Larger number of lines show similar output. The problem is observed with other programs as well: less, mutt, etc., all these programs do not appear to inherit rxvt's geometry anymore. When using xterm the problem does not manifest itself, so I guess the problem lies with rxvt. E.g., after xterm -geometry 80x50 -e man man the man-page is nicely displayed over 50 lines, and when paging through the man-page subsequent blocks of 50 lines are shown. Frank B.
