$ echo $PS1
${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;[EMAIL
PROTECTED]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$
(taken from /etc/skel/.bashrc line 34)
we get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo -n whatever
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ c0rn:~$
instead of the expected
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo -n whatever
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
If either locale is set to some non-utf8 or color codes are removed from
prompt, then it works.
So either bash has a bug or the distributed skeleton .bashrc has a bug.
