>Number: 403 >Category: misc >Synopsis: FreeBSD 1-compiled tcsh, bash and zsh binaries dump on vt102 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs (FreeBSD bugs mailing list) >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sat May 13 19:00:02 1995 >Originator: Heikki Suonsivu >Organization: Helsinki University of Technology, Finland >Release: FreeBSD 2.0-BUILT-19950507 i386 >Environment: FreeBSD current (at most a week old), bash, zsh and tcsh binaries from older FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 system, but they may be from 1.1 ages. >Description: bash, zsh and tcsh print "Termcap entry too long" when setting terminal type to vt102 (or larger like vt220). I don't know when this changed and why, I recompiled the shells on FreeBSD 2 and they work now. >How-To-Repeat: I guess this happens if you take binary from FreeBSD 1 and try to run on it FreeBSD 2 with compatibility shlibs installed. >Fix: Recompile the stuff. I guess this isn't dangerous, just wondering what has changed and will it affect other programs too (none noticed yet)? >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
