Package: xfce4-terminal Version: 0.6.2-3 Severity: normal Hi,
resizing the terminal breaks the visual appearance of several ncurses applications. That is, enlarging the window does not lead to an enlargement of the application's graphical interface and shrinking the window hides the corresponding parts of the application. It seems like the applications don't get notified about the new terminal size. The applications affected are for example: top, screen, htop, ncmpcpp, abook. Interestingly the following applications seem to be not affected: aptitude, mutt, nano, joe. This only happens with xfce4-terminal. Other terminals I tested don't show this strange behavior, including: xterm, gnome-terminal, lxterminal, rxvt. Hence I assume this issue is related to xfce4-terminal or one of its dependencies. I encountered this bug after a recent upgrade and had no problems before with xfce4-terminal. Unfortunately a lot of applications and libraries have been changed by this update so I don't know which specific package could have caused it. But I guess 2-3 weeks ago this bug has not been present on my system (using 'testing' the whole time). I'm not very familiar with the internals of terminal resizing but if I missed some important information just tell me.
