Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** I connect to remote systems using ssh and use vi and vim on the remote systems for all administrative tasks. Now I see that the arrow keys and the compose keys- these are useful for characters as @ and # if you use italian keyboard - have a wrog behavior. Arrow keys commute in insert mode, add a new line and a character at the very beginning of the new line. Compose keys insert a wrong character.The installation of console-data package resolve the issue, as found in askubuntu.com mailing list. I think that this package should be installed as part of the standard system utilities. I found this problem in a fresh installation of Debian 9.1. This problem remained also after I upgraded to 9.3. -- Package-specific info: --- real paths of main Vim binaries --- /usr/bin/vi is /usr/bin/vim.basic /usr/bin/vim is /usr/bin/vim.basic -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.10 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages vim depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.52-2 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u10 ii libgpm2 1.20.4-6.1+b2 ii libselinux1 2.3-2 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140913-1+deb8u2 ii vim-common 2:7.4.488-7+deb8u3 ii vim-runtime 2:7.4.488-7+deb8u3 vim recommends no packages.
