Package: telnet Version: 0.17-36 Severity: minor
The telnet man page appears to list an incorrect escape character under the 'unset' section. " escape This is the telnet escape character (initially “^[”) which causes entry into telnet command mode (when connected to a remote system). " In the rest of the man page, the escape sequence is correctly identified as "^]", only under 'unset' is it listed wrong. Oddly enough, an old FreeBSD 4.11 system I have access to also has this same incorrect line. The man page with our Solaris boxes has what I believe to be the 'correct' "^]" listed. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages telnet depends on: ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-5 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii netbase 4.45 Basic TCP/IP networking system telnet recommends no packages. telnet suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
