Package: info Version: 6.0.0.dfsg.1-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Recently, GNU Info started using the xterm mouse. (There does not appear to be any way to disable this behavior short of TERM=vt100, which is perhaps a separate bug.) When I exit info using control-C, and I then attempt to select text in my shell by clicking the left button, my shell echos " iB#" rather than letting me select text. It seems that when exiting due to SIGINT, info left the terminal configured to send mouse sequences rather than releasing the mouse binding. Steps to reproduce: 1. run "info make" in xterm 2. press control-C to exit back to shell 3. observe that selecting text does not work but instead types characters Desired behavior: when exiting due to SIGINT, info should turn off any special modes it turned on at startup. Workarounds: 1. do not exit info with control-C (unfortunately I don't know another way to exit, and I don't use info frequently enough to remember more of its unusual UI) 2. alias info='env TERM=vt100 info' in your shell Thanks, -andy -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.1.4-00001-ga6a3b30 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages info depends on: ii install-info 6.0.0.dfsg.1-3 ii libc6 2.19-19 ii libtinfo5 6.0+20150810-1 info recommends no packages.
