Description zvasylvv 2009-09-05 18:44:51 UTC
Percentage status is shifted to the right after each new update of percentage number that happened after user input.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run eix-update
2. wait till "building database" process starts
3. press any letter/digit key


Actual Results:  
After each new user input and percentage number update all stuff is shifted to the right

Expected Results:  
Percentage number remains on same place.

Not sure what should happen with data that user has been entered.

Just see screens if my description is too confused :)

(If you want bugs to get fixed then you have to assign them to the right place. If you don't know the correct place then make sure they are assigned to bug-wranglers. Thanks)

This is not a bug: It is the usual behaviour of several parallel tasks
(in your example: eix-update and keyboard input) having output in the
same terminal. You can see mangled output with many other programs as well,
even with simple things like "ls" when you type sufficiently fast.
It is not the job of eix to mangle with your terminal emulator to prevent
other tasks outputting something.
