Package: zsh Version: 4.3.10-14 Severity: important So it looks like support for multibyte characters has regressed. :(
Using setopt VI, though this has confirmed to not be important: zsh% unicode ䷥ pressing esc, 0, w, i, ' -w', which should yield 'unicode -w ䷥', instead yields 'unicode -w䷥', by the looks. Additionally, once that's in your history, just pressing up to get it back to the current line and then down to clear it, will gradually clear one character too many from your prompt until it's empty. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-rc3+ (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages zsh depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.17-2 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libncursesw5 5.7+20100313-2 shared libraries for terminal hand Versions of packages zsh recommends: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libpcre3 8.02-1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi Versions of packages zsh suggests: pn zsh-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
