Let me investigate the bugs I have found in the earlier version:
I installed dstat from unstable:
Setting up dstat (0.6.6-1) ...
INFO: using old version '/usr/bin/python2.3'
and then tried the SIGINT trick while dstat was starting up (by simply
pressing ^C which is easy on a busy system).
out of the 8 times I did this:
6 times my ^C was completeley ignored by dstat (I had to press twice)
1 times out of this it didn't use colour
1 times it worked (yay!)
1 times I got a backtrace:
cerebro ~# ds
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 17, in ?
from __future__ import generators
KeyboardInterrupt
The backtrace is just an annoyance, ignoring sigint is evil, however.
The "dstat crashes with backtrace" bug, when I press ctrl-s/ctrl-q for a
second is also still there:
3 4 47 45 0 1| 0 0 |7544B 10k| 0 0 | 971 1775
4 3 48 43 0 1| 0 40k|7854B 11k| 0 0 | 967 1784
File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 1969, in ?
main()
File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 1948, in main
sys.stdout.write('\n' + ansi['reset'] + ansi['clearline'] + ansi['save'])
IOError: [Errno 4] Interrupted system call
[Exit 1]

the xon/xoff problem should be really trivial to reproduce. unfortunately
it will be unrelated to the other problems above.
It seems none of the problems I have experienced in the older versions
have gone, but instead I got a new one: the new dstat corrupts my terminal
title without restoring it, so I'll go back to the old version until this
is fixed.
