Title:
foregrounding a sudo'd vim will sometimes break terminal state
Status in sudo:
Unknown
Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
See this bug:
http://www.sudo.ws/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=649
Started on Ubuntu/Trusty since it has a sudo after 1.8.7, (precise has
1.8.3).
Steps to reproduce:
- take a local machine with a recent sudo (after 1.8.7)
- sudo vi
- ^Z (control-Z)
- fg
- repeat ^Z and fg until the fg fails and the screen is partially cleared
- now a second fg wil open vim with a broken terminal state:
arrow keys will render the escape sequences and other nastiness
Fix is provided upstream, but author is currently figuring out why it
breaks.
Cheers,
