Patch Description Author Forwarded Bugs Origin Last update
fix-del-backspace-key.patch Added as per Terminology Developers request: erase (backspace) sends DEL on debian by Boris Faure <billiob@gmail.com> Anthony F McInerney <afm404@gmail.com> not-needed 2022-12-19
0010-tytest-make-tests-reliable-on-x32-systems.patch tytest: make tests reliable on x32 systems Boris Faure <billiob@gmail.com> no 2025-05-14
0011-tests-run-the-test-scripts-through-a-shell-whose-pri.patch tests: run the test scripts through a shell whose printf takes \xNN

The scripts spell their escape sequences out as \xNN, which POSIX does not
require printf to understand. dash -- /bin/sh on Debian and Ubuntu -- does not:
it prints the six characters verbatim. So c2.sh, shift_in_out.sh and
zero-width-spaces.sh fed tytest literal backslashes there and failed on any
distribution where the shebang resolves to dash, while passing everywhere
/bin/sh is bash.

Pick the shell rather than leaving it to the shebang. meson probes sh, bash,
ksh and zsh at configure time for one whose printf turns \x41 into A and passes
it to run_tests.sh
