Package: rlwrap Version: 0.28-2 If I press "M-5" and then "f", "f" gets correctly repeated 5 times. However, then the count doesn't get reset, so all letters from then on out all get repeated 5 times! The prefix-arg should be reset after every command. But here there doesn't seem to be any way to reset the prefix argument at all! Even pressing M-1 after that just appends the 1 to the 5, causing everything to be repeated 51 times, even worse!
This is quite irritating, as when that happens there's no way to recover except quitting the program, so far as I can tell. I'm not sure who this bug belongs to. I think it's in rlwrap since I've never seen it happen in other readline-using programs (for example: python), but, just in case it's not, I have libreadline5 5.2-3.1. I also tried upgrading rlwrap 0.33 from unstable, which uses libreadline6, and that didn't change the behavior. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
