It seems I'm also affected by this bug, but running fish: I was using a
10.3-RELEASE FreeBSD with the packaged fish 2.2.0 installed, without
customization, and upgraded my system and packages to 11.0-RELEASE. fish we=
re
upgraded to 2.3.1, and it lost support of arrows and backspace keys: whenev=
er I
try to use them, I get this:
# Up arrow for autocompletion with the last command
penegal@Aethelthryth-FreeBSD~/usr/home/penegal> [A
# Right arrow for autocompletion with the last similar command, then left a=
rrow
to correct input
penegal@Aethelthryth-FreeBSD~/usr/home/penegal> ls[C[D

Tab still functions as usual; backspace produces no result, so I have to Ct=
rl+C
to erase the line and restart the typing from the start. As I also use fish=
 as
the root shell, the problem persists when using sudo su, but not with su -;=
 the
problem is also present when using fish from vt, and the su tweak works all=
 the
same. bash doesn't have this problem and responds as usual to these keys, a=
s do
fish over SSH connections, so it's not keyboard-related.

James Keenan and another guy on the ML drew my attention to this report, wh=
ich
is disturbingly similar to my problem. Hope it is and that I'm not simply
making noise.
