Alright, I've got it locked down to the absence of a TERM environment variable in the autopkgtest environment. If I run the same command outside of autopkgtest, after running `unset TERM`, i get the exact same failure. So, this failure is IMHO definitely worth fixing, and I intend to do so now,

I can now reproduce this locally, and expect to have a fix this evening. I've looked over the rules for the Soft Freeze, and understand that it'll be acceptable to cut a new upstream release (I'm the upstream author) with this fix only (there have been no other changes since this release), upload

I've found one problem that would lead to a SIGABRT on shutdown, which might or might not include a message about an assertion failure. This was an issue in the underlying Notcurses library, which will be fixed in 2.0.9 and 2.1.0. I think there's at least one other kind of failure on shutdown,

Thanks for the report. I was aware of the autopkgtest failures, but didn't realize that a failure there prevented migration. This failure seems a property of the autopkgtest environment, and has thus proved difficult to debug without a release. The upcoming 1.2.21 release has added diagnostics to

I've just uploaded 2.0.4+dfsg.1-3, which I believe fixes this issue. It ought be available within a few hours. I believe that the version constraints could have been tightened to (>= 2.0.4), but I didn't see this as adding particularly much value. Thanks as always for filing these bugs, Andreas!
