The long text above is for Jaunty 9.04. I have rechecked the bug in Karmic beta for bash 4.0.33, and the bug is still here.
My steps to reproduce were: 1)Cd to a directory with multibyte characters in name 2)Write some command longer than terminal horizontal size. 3)Try to edit the line in different ways (move backwards by means of |<-|) and see messy behaviour. Press |/|\| to see the previous command, you typed, and see that the output is messy again. 4)Execute PS1=\$ and see that the bugs are no more with the different prompt. -- bash utf-8 characters issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
