Title:
xterm wrongly handles Unicode on the prompt when printing text
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in kdebase package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in xterm package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xterm
xterm misinterpretes some characters and writes junk text to the
terminal under the followign conditions:
1. The prompt contains special charachters, in this test case german umlauts
2. The text printed from a command (shell built-in, program, script, etc.)
does not end with a line break
Steps to reproduce:
Start xterm or any terminal emulator relying on it (e.g. gnome-
terminal), then create or cd into a directory containing an umlaut
(e.g. Ü11). Run a command that generates a one-line output of text,
e.g. "echo -n Hello".
Expecgted behaviour: The output text is printed in front of the next
line's command line prompt with the input mark behind the prompt
Current behaviour: Text is not printed, instead, parts of the prompt
are printed behind it and after the input mark
