[Flac-dev] [fsblk@aurora.uaf.edu: Bug#138828: flac: strange decode output]

[Matt Zimmerman]

retitle 138828 flac: progress display is broken with long filenames
thanks

I don't think it's a gnome-terminal issue, as I've seen the same behaviour
with xterm in the past.  I've never bothered doing anything about it because
it seems to be purely cosmetic; the operation still completes successfully.

I'm forwarding this bug upstream.

Subject: Bug#138828: flac: strange decode output

Package: flac
Version: 1.0.2-1
Severity: minor

This may only happen for lines of a certain length, and possibly only
on certain terminals.  As such it may be a bug in gnome-terminal.
It looked almost like this the clipping below, except that instead of
being wrapped, the
'extremely_strange_slightly_disturbing_female_spoken_word_hitching_to_alaska.flac'
file name was repeated on every line.

It was like the terminal got confused and started outputting this
instead of the degocind progress percentage.

Here is the excert, the result of a shell for loop to run flac -d on
all files in the directory.
