Package: xterm
Version: 208-3.1
Severity: minor
The escape sequence for changing the cursor colour does not work when
you are trying to change the cursor colour to the same colour as the
foreground text.
eg.
$ xterm -fg green -bg black
xterm$ echo -ne "\E]12;red\007"
xterm$ echo -ne "\E]12;green\007"
xterm$ echo -ne "\E]12;blue\007"
xterm$ echo -ne "\E]12;green\007"
The lines that should set the cursor to green do nothing.
The problem appears to be in charproc.c in set_cursor_gcs() where it
checks to see if the cursor colour is different from the foreground and
background colour. If so, it operates as though the cursor colour has
changed. Yet in this above case, the cursor colour has changed _to_ the
foreground colour.

Description:
xterm - X terminal emulator
Closes: 347415 348384 348457 350664 351425
Changes:
xterm (210-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release (the following are fixes immediately relevant to
Debian. More are in the upstream changelog)
+ allow cursor to have the same color as foreground (text), since it is
rendered as reverse (closes: #350664)
+ add TIOCSCTTY ioctl() ifdef'd for __GNU__ to set the controlling
terminal (closes: #348457)
+ typo in manpage (closes: #351425)
+ revert the XTerm.ad change from patch #208 (closes: #348384)
+ add check to ensure that double-clicking to extend selection will not
extend it into the scrollback area. This still allows users to scroll
back and select text (closes: #347415)
* Remove the 01_stolen_from_HEAD patch, as it is now obsolete
* Switch build dependency from libxaw8-dev to libxaw7-dev
* debian/rules clean target now calls make clean instead of distclean
* Use dh_install's --list-missing option
* Merge duplicate Provides fields
