Is there a workaround for this behavior? I am having the exact same issue using the bundled mysql client:
ch...@zaphod:~$ mysql --version mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.37, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper CTRL-<left arrow> produces ;5D CTRL-<right arrow> produces ;5C DEL produces ~ CTRL-R is non functional Losing these integral shell features makes the application mostly unusable to me. I am going to need to pull a copy of mysql source and compile my own client to have it usable again. This seems to me to elevate this above "wishlist" importance. Is there a configuration file that can be used (ala .inputrc) to map these key combinations back to their appropriate configuration? -- some keys print characters instead of performing their actions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451801 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
