Package: ncurses-base
Version: 5.7+20081213-1
Severity: normal
ncurses-base provides a terminfo entry for screen which is tuned for
Debian system (kbs=^?). screen-256color and others are not tuned and
are based on original screen terminfo entry which poses problems with
backspace usage.
Problem is still there in squeeze.
% infocmp screen screen-256color
comparing screen to screen-256color.
...
kbs: '\177', '^H'.

Thanks,
Nicolas.
