Package: info Version: 6.0.0.dfsg.1-3 Severity: normal The info browser suddenly seems to have gained some sort of mouse support. The symptoms are:
Normally, I start info in a GNU screen tab inside xterm, then hit / and paste the thing I want to search for via middle-click. This stopped working. In mc, which also suddenly gained mouse support in screen, I can circumvent this by holding Shift while middle-clicking (mc has other problems though this is not the place for them). This does not work correctly in info because it inserts the CLIPBOARD then, not the PRIMARY selection. This impedes my workflow with this already… unusual to use… program a lot. Please disable mouse “support”, at least as a (documented in the manpage) command line option, if not always. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unreleased APT policy: (500, 'unreleased'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: x32 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, amd64 Kernel: Linux 4.1.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages info depends on: ii install-info 6.0.0.dfsg.1-3 ii libc6 2.19-19 ii libtinfo5 6.0+20150810-1 info recommends no packages.
