How reproduce: I have PS1 from /etc/bash/bashrc: \[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \w \$\[\033[00m\] and bash-3.1_p17 with such PS1 I have such picture: PS1 printf "a" > /tmp/1.txt PS1 cat /tmp/1.txt PS1 so I don't see "a", if set ${use_color} to no all works fine.

works for me: root@vapier 0 ~ # export PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \w \$\[\033[00m\]' root@vapier ~ #printf "a" > foo.txt root@vapier ~ #cat foo.txt aroot@vapier ~ #
Broken in a slightly different way for me (bash-3.1_p17) jakub@testbox ~ $ export PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \w \$\[\033[00m\]' jakub@testbox ~ $printf "a" > /tmp/foo.txt jakub@testbox ~ $cat /tmp/foo.txt jakub@testbox ~ $$ su - testbox ~ # export PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \w \$\[\033[00m\]' root@testbox ~ #printf "a" > /tmp/foo.txt root@testbox ~ #cat /tmp/foo.txt root@testbox ~ ##

looks like a bug in readline to me: printf a > foo.txt PS1='\[\e[0;33m\]\u\[\e[0m\] ' export LC_ALL=en_US cat foo.txt <- works export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF8 cat foo.txt <- fails PS1='\u ' export LC_ALL=en_US cat foo.txt <- works export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF8 cat foo.txt <- works
you could try readline-5.2
(In reply to comment #6) > you could try readline-5.2 No luck here...
(In reply to comment #6) > you could try readline-5.2 > It works for me, but I only update to readline-5.2 is not help, I also update bash to 3.2 and in this combination all works.
