Package: bash Version: 4.4-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
In a mate session, with bash, version 4.4.12(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu), if I open a terminal (xterm, mate, xfce) and type: mkdir -p 012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890\ 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890\ 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890\ 1234567890123456789e then cd to the directory, it works as expected. Now if I replace the laste "e" by "é", the mkdir works but the terminal closes with a core dump after the cd command. (Note that the problem will not occur after redimensionning the terminal window.) -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-7-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 9.9+deb9u5 ii dash 0.5.8-2.4 ii debianutils 4.8.1.1 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libtinfo5 6.0+20161126-1+deb9u2 Versions of packages bash recommends: ii bash-completion 1:2.1-4.3 Versions of packages bash suggests: pn bash-doc <none>
