Bug#419578: gnome-terminal: back arrow doesn't show correctly long command lines if terminal window is enlarged

[Paolo Benvenuto]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.14.2-2
Severity: normal

Reproduce this bug this way:

You have an open gnome-terminal with its window not fully enlarged, and you time a command longer than a line.

For example: if in your gnome terminal 80 chars fit, you type a longest-than-80-chars line, i.e.:

wget http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/sdk/build1/livecd/olpc-redhat-stream-sdk-livecd.iso

While the command is being executed you enlarge the gnome-terminal window, either dragging the border with the mouse or maximizing it.

Then you wait for the command to stop or you stop it.

Now, if you hit up-arrow to go back to that previous command, the line receives a CR without a LF at char 80. A LF character is missing.
