Package: libvte-2.91-0:amd64
Version: 0.77.91-2
I don't know what changed, but suddenly many things bound to
backspace/ctrl-h don't work properly.
I will be comparing 0.76* to 0.77.91-2.
## Example in zsh
To reproduce:
- start zsh
- run: bindkey "$termcap[kb]" backward-kill-word
- press a few characters to have something in the buffer to delete
- then…
Behaviour:
- vte 0.76: pressing backspace deletes the whole line (as configured
with `bindkey`)
- vte 0.77: pressing backspace deletes only the last character (as if
the configured `bindkey` wasn't seen)
## Example in nano
To reproduce:
- add `bind ^H replace main` to nanorc (e.g. ~/.config/nano/nanorc)
- open nano
- press a few characters to have something in the buffer to delete
- then…
Behaviour:
- vte 0.76: pressing ctrl-h pops the replace menu
- vte 0.77: pressing ctrl-h deletes the last character (as if `bind`
wasn't seen)
## vte?
None of my terminals/zsh/nano/etc. configurations changed. I've tested
several vte-based terminal, all expose the same bug. I've tested non-vte
terminals, they work fine, unlike vte 0.77.91.
