Description of problem: rxvt-unicode has no entry in /etc/termcap thus does not work quiet how one would want it to work. With this being in extras now it woule be great if for fc3/fc4/devel the termcap package would contain this information. See /usr/share/doc/rxvt-unicode-5.5/README.FAQ from rxvt-unicode package for info on the termcap entry...
ping?

Created attachment 117949 [details] terminfo file for rxvt-unicode (see rxvt-unicode)
Created attachment 118848 [details] Terminfo FEDORA CORE 4 In FEDORA CORE 4 is a TERMINFO description for rxvt-unicode, but there is no description for this terminal-emulator in termcap-database. I can create (via tic) a termcap-description. But I need to know one thing: Current TERMINFO-description in FEDORA CORE 4 is different form your TERMINFO-description. See attached files. My TERMINFO-description was created (in FEDORA CORE 4): 1) launch any terminal 2) export TERM=rxvt-unicode 3) infocmp > my-rxvt-terminfo.txt Your TERMINFO-description is different. For instance "acsc" (ALTCHARSET). What works fine ?
Created attachment 118850 [details] Your terminfo
Ok here is why I reported to problem in the first place: The home key would not bring me to the beginning of the line in rxvt-unicode. So I played around a bit with stty options but could not find a way to fix this. After that I remembered that when I packaged up rxvt-unicode it did provide: /usr/share/doc/rxvt-unicode-5.7/etc/rxvt-unicode.termcap /usr/share/doc/rxvt-unicode-5.7/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo So what I posted was the section from this file supplied by rxvt-unicode so I suppose what you have is somewhat longer... I don't know that much about term{cap,info} and don't know if you need to include the whole description or if this small section is sufficient. As long as it solves the Home key problem (and maybe others that I did not notice on en_US.utf8)
A new termcap-description for rxvt-unicode-terminal-emulator created (via 'tic -C' from TERMINFO-DATABASE in FEDORA CORE 4). This new termcap-database record is identical with a example in rxvt-unicode-5.7/README.FAQ Fixed in FEDORA CORE 3: termcap 5.4 Rel.4fc3 FEDORA CORE 4: termcap 5.4 Rel.7fc4 DEVEL : termcap 5.4 Rel.7 Tested using 'bash' in rxvt-unicode-terminal-emulator. The key-home (key-end) works fine.
