[Pkg-urxvt-maintainers] [Bug 774984] [NEW] rxvt-unicode backspace key no longer working as expected

[John Christopher]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rxvt-unicode

After upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 urxvt doesn't handle the backspace
key as it should. It adds a whitespace for 5 or 6 strokes and then it
stops displaying anything.

Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
Release:	11.04
rxvt-unicode:
  Installé : 9.09-3
  Candidat : 9.09-3
 Table de version :
 *** 9.09-3 0
        500 http://be.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/universe i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Solution is to install ncurses-term.
