Package: mate-terminal Version: 1.8.1+dfsg1-4 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
This results in programs like E Links and Midnight Commander only offering 16 colour interfaces, at least by default. Whereas some programs, like E Links, can just be set to use 256 colours, others, like the Midnight Commander, will refuse to accept any such setting. A quick fix can be achieved by using the “Run a custom command instead of my shell” setting (menu → Edit → Profile Preferences → Title and Command) and using this command: env TERM=xterm-256color <shell> e.g.: env TERM=xterm-256color /bin/bash -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mate-terminal depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u1 ii libcairo2 1.14.0-2.1 ii libdconf1 0.22.0-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+deb8u2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-3 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libvte9 1:0.28.2-5 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii mate-desktop-common 1.8.1+dfsg1-3+deb8u1 ii mate-terminal-common 1.8.1+dfsg1-4 pn python:any <none> mate-terminal recommends no packages. mate-terminal suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
