- Subject: xterm: broken rendering in ncurses programs

Package: xterm Version: 222-1 Severity: important After upgrading from 210-3.1 to 222-1 ncurses programs started displaying rendering artifacts (see attachment for an example). I checked this bug with mc, elinks, the debconf dialog frontend, moc, etc. This seems to be related to changes in the terminfo entry shipped with xterm, but this is just my guess. Quoting from the upstream changelog: Patch #216 - 2006/8/3 - several changes to terminfo: * incorporate some minor changes from ncurses to help keep these synchronized: 2005-02-26 modify sgr/sgr0 in xterm-new to improve tgetent's derived "me". 2006-02-18 remove ncv flag from xterm-16color 2006-06-24 improve xterm-256color by combining the 16-color setaf/setab strings with SGR 48, and cancelling the setf/setb strings. * use extended function-key definitions for xterm-sun, xterm-sco entries. * add terminfo building-blocks corresponding to the modifyFunctionKeys and modifyCursorKeys resources. Maybe the ncurses entry for xterm should be updated? Note, however, that I compiled the terminfo entry shipped with xterm, and it still didn't fix the problem.
