Ticket #12221 deals with unsetting the TERM environment variable in pexpect child programs. This should prevent those children from doing fancy stuff with the terminal, breaking the pexpect interface.
I consider this ticket a *beta-blocker* (pun totally not intented), in the sense that I cannot even release a beta without that patch included. I literally cannot, since the removal of a character "alpha" -> "beta" triggers this bug in the merger script. Therefore, sage-5.0.beta0 *will* include #12221, reviewed or not. So please have a look at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/12221 Thanks, Jeroen. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
