Package: aptitude
Version: 0.3.3-1
Severity: minor


Wide-character support seems to have improved a lot in aptitude 3.3, but
I noticed the following case still has a funny glitch.

I use the aptitude "emacs-style minibuffer" option for prompts and
questions.

With LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8, the prompt for quitting looks like this:

������ aptitude ����λ���ޤ���? [n]y

However, while it waits for user input, the terminal cursor is displayed
on top of the "��", not at the end of the line; it seems to be
calculating the cursor position assuming that all displayed characters
are only single-width.

Thanks,

-Miles
