From: Richard Jones Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2010 12:34:16 +0000 (+0100) Subject: daemon: Set TERM=dumb inside the daemon. X-Git-Tag: 1.0.89~9 X-Git-Url: http://git.annexia.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=641e8275b3b63b68c82ef80735bb55f9da05ef2c;p=libguestfs.git daemon: Set TERM=dumb inside the daemon. Since commit 977edb3185fe8f we have been passing TERM from the library into the appliance (for the benefit of virt-rescue). However this changes the output of parted, which I would argue is a bug in parted: TERM=xterm /sbin/parted -m -- /dev/sda unit b print 2>&1 | hexdump -C 00000000 1b 5b 3f 31 30 33 34 68 42 59 54 3b 0a 2f 64 65 |.[?1034hBYT;./de| Notice the escape-sequence junk before the official "BYT;" header. By setting TERM=dumb we avoid this. --- diff --git a/daemon/guestfsd.c b/daemon/guestfsd.c index 1518438..69baf9e 100644 --- a/daemon/guestfsd.c +++ b/daemon/guestfsd.c @@ -227,6 +227,7 @@ main (int argc, char *argv[]) setenv ("PATH", "/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin", 1); setenv ("SHELL", "/bin/sh", 1); setenv ("LC_ALL", "C", 1); + setenv ("TERM", "dumb", 1); #ifndef WIN32 /* We document that umask defaults to 022 (it should be this anyway). */
