Package: xterm
Version: 208-2
Severity: important

The cursor character is disappearing and no longer reappearing. To
reproduce the bug:
 => start 'xterm' (with or without blinking cursor)
 => launch 'screen'
 => no cursor is shown

When exiting screen, no cursor is shown again, even after typing a
'reset'.

I have tried with a screen package from both unstable and testing but it
did not fix the bug.

FWIW, I have downgraded to the current xterm from the testing system
(6.8.2.dfsg.1-11) and it fixed the problem.

   [ Julien Cristau ]
   * New upstream release. Includes the following fixes for bugs reported in
     the Debian BTS:
     + add the Xaw scrollbar translations resource to the xterm manpage, add an
       example showing how to change the mouse button assignments
       (closes: #382225).
     + amend cell-width computation for FreeType from patch #217, which did not
       work for VT100 line-drawing characters (closes: #399638).
     + revert an optimisation in SGR_Foreground() and SGR_Background from patch
       #209 (closes: #347722).
     + fixes to make the internalBorder area not change color due to
       reverseVideo and/or related exposure events.  The latter was a very old
       bug exposed in patch #196 (closes: #397624).
    * The fix for #347790 is now included upstream.
