Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xterm

The TERM environment variable not set, which creates some difficulty. I
use Guake as my standard virtual shell, but the same thing happens in
Gnome Terminal.

If I run $ export TERM=xterm everything works like a charm again, but it
is frustrating having to do this at each new session and it would
certainly be a issue for beginners.

I got this bug both on my laptop running latest Maverick and my server,
also running Maverick. Both installed Beta 4.
