QTerminal.app various keys no longer work (Home, End, arrows (Up, Down, Left, Right) …); FreeBSD-packaged QTerminal is not affected #190

Regression, first observed with 0.5.0 (0E43)

arrow keys not working

The screenshot above was nano after sudo -u root csh so it's probably not, as originally suspected in Matrix, specific to fish.

I can reproduce this on helloSystem build: 0E57 for commit: 80061bf

None of the arrow keys are working
Home and End keys are not working

The FreeBSD version that can be installed with sudo pkg install qterminal is not affected. Only /Applications/QTerminal.app. This one is self-compiled to fix https://github.com/lxqt/qtermwidget/pull/418 but my change https://github.com/lxqt/qtermwidget/pull/418/files seems innocent when it comes to arrow keys...

Interestingly /Applications/QTerminal.app also seems starting to work as soon as one installs sudo pkg install qterminal.

grahamperrin commented 3 years ago

sudo pkg remove qterminal
quit QTerminal
reopen QTerminal.app
the application continues to respond normally.

Test whether it survives a restart of the OS …

Super strange! What is going on?

probonopd commented 3 years ago

sudo pkg install qtermwidget is sufficient; /usr/local/share/qtermwidget5/kb-layouts to be precise. Looks like we need to bundle the contents of /usr/local/share/qtermwidget with QTerminal.app somehow.
