Description of problem: When typing a umlaut e.g. a "ö" in the directory field at the http setup TUI dialog window, backspace key will be locked. Workaround is to click on "Back" to get a usable http setup TUI dialog window during repeating the step. The selected language setting was English with a German keyboard. As this is a common setting in Germany, this has to work, because "äöü" is near the "Enter" key and it's likely that umlauts are pressed by mistake. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.1.1.46-1 How reproducible: Everytime, see above. Actual results: Umlauts are locking backspace key in TUI dialog window. Expected results: No locking, normal use of backspace key to delete the umlaut.
What's the current status? Do we get this fixed for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5?
This bug report is fixed for Fedora 7 (as per bug #206697), but is it also fixed for RHEL5?
This bug is a newt issue.
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?".
AFAIK this bug report already succeeded this flag internally. Please check the related case for that...
We are sorry for not addressing this issue in RHEL-4. As newt is not scheduled for an update in RHEL-4.9, I'm closing this bugzilla as WONTFIX. If you are still experiencing this issue with RHEL-5, please reopen it against RHEL-5.
