Package: xterm Version: 264-1 Severity: minor Tags: upstream Hi,
when I close a xterm window (from the window manager) after I ran "sudo -i" in it, the screen blinks, this does not happen if I become superuser using "sudo -s" or "su". I don't think this is DE related, as I get this with Gnome and XFCE; and I get this behavior also with other terminal emulators like gnome-terminal and aterm, so maybe this not xterm specific either, forgive me if I am abusing the xterm bugs for this. Does it have anything to do with the xserver authorization model and sudo itself? Any idea about where should I report it? It is not a great problem from the user POV but I am curios about what is triggering this behavior, and whether it is reproducible by other people as well or it may depend on something in my environment.
