[Python-modules-team] Bug#831016: qscintilla text cursor wrong position

[VA]

Package: python-pyqt5.qsci
Version: 2.9.2+dfsg-3

The text cursor in qscintilla widgets seems to offset on the right
compared to the position it should be, and the offset seems to move.
Here's a little screencast to show the problem:

The text cursor should be right after the character typed, but it's much
more to the right. Situation is even worse when editing text in the
middle of a line.

The issue appears when using "eric", and can also be demonstrated with a
basic PyQt program:


#!/usr/bin/env python
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
from PyQt5.Qsci import QsciScintilla
app = QApplication([])
sci = QsciScintilla()
sci.show()
app.exec_()

I'm using XFCE, in case it affects the style.
