Package: rc Version: 1.7.4-1+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Neither Spanish accented vowels nor the "eñe" are echoed into rc(1) when executed as a login shell in virtual ttys with a latam keyboard layout. Nevertheless, if rc(1) is executed again, as a subshell, or when running a readline dependant program such as ed, mutt or dvtm, those keys will print the expected characters. Please, do have a look at this bug report for further information: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=833116 I would like your advise to evaluate if it is an rc, a login1 or a readline related problem. Please, let me know which other tests would you consider to be useful.
