RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Paulo Andrade 2020-01-16 13:41:26 UTC

Recently bash and readline were patched in rhel7 to enabled bracketed
paste mode, in bz#1573901 and bz#1573899

Unfortunately it does not work with screen. There is a patch for the
issue at https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/commit/?id=c389013e89e7b04ce43872f2e72d43f77461a3c0
but it was not added to the latest release, that is screen 4.7.0

Please consider backporting the patch to make
$ bind enable-bracketed-paste on'
work on rhel7.

Comment 2 Vaclav Dolezal 2020-01-30 12:44:22 UTC

Easy fix, patch available, moving to 7.9
