Lot of broken (curses?) console applications in Bionic












0















Has anyone else noticed character rendering (printing) issues in Bionic for console applications?



bastet
nmon
sudoku and more?



Before I dive into building from source, I am thinking there is a known answer already? These work for Precise, Trusty, Xenial.



Behaviour seems terminal independent. On the face of it, repeated characters are being collapsed in a library component.

    Please mention the terminal you're using. Konsole in Kubuntu 18.04 renders the sudoku screen correctly. Which font are you using?
