Package: emacs23 Version: 23.3+1-4 Severity: normal "emacs -nw" doesn't always initialize the terminal (at least in an xterm), with the following observed effects: * The alternate screen is not used. * Some function keys do not work. For instance, I get for [Home] and [End]: M-[ h is undefined M-[ f is undefined because these incorrect escape sequences are sent instead of M-O H and M-O F.
This problem occurred 3 times today and once earlier this week. AFAIK, it never occurred before. So, this may be a regression in the latest emacs23 packages. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages emacs23 depends on: ii emacs23-bin-common 23.3+1-4 ii libasound2 1.0.24.1-4 ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.16-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 ii libfreetype6 2.4.7-2 ii libgconf2-4 2.32.4-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-1 ii libgif4 4.1.6-9 ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.8-1 ii libgpm2 1.20.4-4 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.7-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.7-2 ii libjpeg8 8c-2 ii libm17n-0 1.6.3-1 ii libncurses5 5.9-2 ii libotf0 0.9.12-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.29.4-2 ii libpng12-0 1.2.46-3 ii librsvg2-2 2.34.1-3 ii libsm6 2:1.2.0-2 ii libtiff4 3.9.5-2 ii libtinfo5 5.9-2 ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-2 ii libxft2 2.2.0-3 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.9-3 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 emacs23 recommends no packages.
