Package: coreutils Version: 8.32-4+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Quoth POSIX Issue 7, XCU, stty, STDOUT, last paragraph: -- >8 -- If control characters are written as part of the default output, or if the -a option is specified, control characters shall be written as: "%s = %s;", <control-character name>, <value> where <value> is either the character, or some visual representation of the character if it is non-printable, or the string undef if the character is disabled. -- >8 -- (crucially, i.a., "undef" is italicised, and "the string I[undef]" matches the rest of the page, cf. OPERANDS, Special Control Character Assignments). This unequivocally means "if stty kill undef, then stty -a must have »kill = undef;«" (&c.), but: -- >8 -- $ stty -a | grep = speed 38400 baud; rows 54; columns 172; line = 0; intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>; eol2 = <undef>; swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; discard = ^O; min = 1; time = 0; -- >8 -- What's worse, stty eol '<undef>' doesn't recognise <undef> as an alias for undef.
