I have not tested, but I think this is actually util-linux[1], and may be fixed upstream by[2].

Boot into Ubuntu Server (no GUI). 2. Wait for the `tty1` login prompt. 3. Press an arrow key (← or →). 4. Press backspace to delete part of the line. 5. Attempt to type a username and press Enter. ## Result: - The login prompt no longer accepts input or proceeds. - You cannot log in until the system is restarted. ## Expected behavior: - Arrow key and backspace input should be handled cleanly. - Login should still be possible. ## Notes: - This bug occurs on the text-based terminal (`tty1`) launched by `getty@tty1.service`, managed by systemd. - Kernel version: 6.8.0-60-generic - Affected version: Ubuntu Server 24.04.2 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/2111126/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
