Package: bash3
Version: 3.0-12
Severity: minor
Hi!
I noticed following minor issue with bash3 run in vi-mode with colored PS1
prompt. When I type <Esc>-/ (for search in history), cursor jumps few
characters back and starts to overwrite prompt. Sometimes also part of
previous command is printed.
Example:
orphan:~ $ echo $BASH_VERSION
3.00.16(1)-release
orphan:~ $ /ho $BASH_VERSIO
^
Cursor is now on $ sign, as shown by '^'.
My PS1 is defined as follows:
PS1="${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\e[32m\]\h:\[\e[0m\]\w
\[\e[36m\]$\[\e[0m\] "
If prompt does not use escape chars to make colors, e.g. PS1="\h:\w $ "
problem does not occur.
I tried to install some older versions from snapshot.debian.net and found
out, that -10 works fine also with colored prompt, however -11 is affected.
Also current bash version from sarge (2.05b-24) works fine with same config
files.
It should be possible to reproduce this problem by setting colored PS1 and
setting bash to vi mode.
Regards.
