Package: pterm
Version: 0.58-1
Severity: minor

I just used my time machine (aka "date --set ") to send a mail which I
should have sent a few hours ago. :)  Interestingly, pterm gets quite
confused when you change the time by just one hour.  When you type
anything into an existing pterm, it is not shown (much like typing a
passphrase) or acted upon (executed) - but when I switch
virtual console and switch back, the text is there and the commands
executed so it obviously ended up in a buffer and just didn't get
printed.

When I open a new pterm after changing the time, I don't see this
behaviour.  To test, I reset the time, opened a gnome-terminal, set
the time back by an hour again; my input was shown and executed so I
think this is a bug in pterm.
