Description NiTr0 2017-06-07 17:53:06 UTC 
steps to reproduce:
1. run lxterminal
2. run mc
3. disable mc panes by CTRL+O
4. select text on screen
5. paste it (shift+insert or by mouse)

text will be pasted with garbage "~0" at start and "~1" at end, something like ~0pasted text~1


it seems like trouble is in old x11-libs/vte-0.28.2-r208 which is used by lxterminal, similar tickets for other distros: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte/+bug/1350334 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824359

fix: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729533 (from https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3207 )

mc version: 4.8.18-r1
lxterminal versions: 0.1.11 and 0.2.0-r1
Comment 1 NiTr0 2017-06-07 18:00:41 UTC 
same trouble happens if lxterminal gtk3 flag is used (it uses vte 0.36.5 in that case).
Comment 2 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2017-06-09 22:16:54 UTC 
x11-libs/vte-0.28.2-r208 is very old. 
Perhaps some libraries on your system need to be rebuilt.
Is it fixed after updating the package?
Comment 3 NiTr0 2017-06-30 18:46:40 UTC 
No, it wasn't fixed. lxterminal seems to be depend on this old version.

When I added gtk3 flag to lxterminal - it was assembled with vte 0.36.5, but it has same trouble and after reboot it fails to start. So I reassembled it w/o gtk3.

vte-0.28 is gone.
