Description Honza 'thingie' Bartoš 2009-08-29 08:47:36 UTC
Description of problem:
gnome-terminal (and other vte-based terminals) draws over the last hardstatus line of screen when it gets there. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-terminal-2.27.91-1.fc12.i686
vte-0.21.4-1.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
put following lines in your .screenrc
hardstatus alwayslastline
hardstatus string '%{= kG}[ %{G}%H %{g}][ %{=kw}%?%-Lw%?%{r}(%{W}%n*%f%t%?(%u)%?%{r})%{w}%?%+Lw%?%?%= %{g}][%{B}%Y-%m-%d %{W}%c %{g}]'

run gnome-terminal
run screen
hit enter until you redraw the status line

reproducible always

Expected results:
status line should stay there and don't get redrawed

Fortunately this has been fixed in master since.  Will be in next release I'll release on Monday.

Confirmed vte-0.21.5-1.fc12.x86_64 fixes the problem for me.
