Description of problem: After updating to "vte-0.15.3-1.fc7", "GNOME" Terminal" shows some dysfunctional behaviour when "csh" is chosen: control characters for "bold" mode stop working; so do several non-alphanumeric keys such as "tab" and arrow keys. Consequently, file completion or command history are not available anymore. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vte-0.15.3-1.fc7 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to "vte-0.15.3-1.fc7". 2. Open a new "GNOME" terminal window. 3. Try tab-completion, history function, etc. Actual results: Respective features do not work. Expected results: Respective features should continue to work. Additional info: Afer switching to "sh/bash", things work as expected. Likewise, downgrading to "vte-0.15.2-1.fc7" allows to restore full functionality. I have made sure that the issue described above is not due to my ".cshrc" file by moving it away from my home directory.
Would you mind reporting this at bugzilla.gnome.org, so we can track it down?

Created attachment 148178 [details] Patch that resolves wrong TERM setting This patch corrects the erroneous setting of "TERM" to value "dumb". After adding: Patch0: replace-env-bz228720.patch %patch0 -p0 -b .replace-env-bz228720 to the "spec" file, the package is rebuilt and works correctly regarding the malfunction reported earlier.
A refined correction has again been suggested at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407945#c16
Created attachment 148189 [details] Improved patch that solves "TERM" variable issue The 2nd patch works even better than the first one. I have had the impression that the initial one did not work entirely correctly although it solved my problem completely, because I have had some trouble with "ctrl-c" after adding it.
Fixed in "vte-0.15.6-1.fc72.
