Package: xterm
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal
With the old xterm,
xterm -e 'while true; echo foo; sleep 5; done'
would work just fine, now xterm pops up for a split-second and
vanishes.
xterm -e '/bin/bash' seems to work fine though.
xterm -e '/bin/bash -c \while true; echo foo; sleep 5; done\'
however does again not work.
