FYI Python had a similar issue with readline which injected bytes like ".[?1034h": https://bugs.python.org/issue19884. The workaround was to set TERM=xterm-256color environment variable.
I tried running the checks after updating the test command to "TERM=xterm-256color TRAVIS=true py.test-3 --verbose" Saw the env value set in the checks when I ran mock to build the package. Same failure. Thx for the suggestion Victor.
I added the temporary workaround: echo "set enable-bracketed-paste off" > .inputrc export INPUTRC=$PWD/.inputrc and pushed it up so the tests would be passing again. The build failed: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=60043613 I tried to reproduce the failure in a scratch build and it succeeded: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=60044790 The build failure was not the bracketed paste error at first glance. I'll poke a bit more and see what I can figure out.
