Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.3
Severity: normal
if i do "reportbug socat" and then choose the number for following up
on #583164 (currently "8"), read the message with my pager (less), and
then hit enter to see the followup, the screen goes blank and nothing
i type is echoed.
i can get out of this by hitting "q" or ctrl-C several times, but my
terminal is left unable to echo anything. I have to run "reset" from
the terminal to regain control. (my terminal emulator is
rxvt-unicode).
If i try to review the problematic bug report directly with
reportbug -N 583164
then i see this message after trying to view the second comment:
fd.write(text)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2010' in position
761: ordinal not in range(128)
(unicode U+2010 is "hyphen", fwiw)
and then hitting "q" leaves me in the following terminal:
0 dkg@alice:~$ reportbug -N 583164
