Description of problem: On Fedora, Octave gui emits the following kind of warning on startup and after each Enter: undecodable token: \001b(hex)[?2004l undecodable token: \001b(hex)[?2004h Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.2.0-11.fc34 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Octave Gui 2. Type in something and press Enter Actual results: "Undecodable token" warnings seen at startup and after each Enter Expected results: No warnings seen, only normal output. Additional info: It is this bug from upstream, triggered by readline package being updated to 8.1 in Fedora 34, which enables "bracketed paste mode" by default: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=59483 The bug is closed upstream and comment contain a list of commits that fix this. With some luck they are easy to apply to Fedora's version of Octave.
Well, it was perhaps a little more complicated than I hoped - can you test out this build? - https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=65358877
Tested. The reported error is gone, I think this update is ready Bodhi. Thank you for acting so quickly. There is another problem, text is not pasted to Octave Gui. But that was the case even in the current version in F34 repositories, so it is not a regression from your update. I cannot find a related bug in upstream tracker. I will investigate and file any bugs as needed. I do not think the paste bug needs to block resolving this bug, because it seems unrelated.

I managed to reproduce this issue in multiple different setups. Not related to this bug here, reported upsteam as a separate issue: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60356
