Subject: stterm: Add scrollback posibility
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2022 00:03:57 +0100
Package: stterm
Version: 0.8.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

* What led up to the situation?

I wanted to scroll back in the terminal console.

It is something that doesn't come by default in st/stterm but there is an official patch by upstream called scrollback as well as an utility called scroll which is experimental to add this funcionality.

However, Debian GNU/Linux maintainer is not interested in providing the patch for it.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?

I just installed the package by default and tried several combinations of mouse wheel, mouse wheel+shift, etc.

* What was the outcome of this action?

The software has no possibility to scroll back.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

Be able to scroll back.

Thanks for this. Stterm is not a forked package in Devuan and we use Debian's
packages directly without recompilation. Please redirect these requests to
Debian's BTS.

Thanks.

Thank you for the quick reply.

How may I redirect the bug to Debian BTS through the reportbug package
in Devuan?

I made the report through it to make it and I am not sure if the
configuration for reporting just to Devuan is set as the only option,
making me having to report this to Debian manually, or if there is a
specific option to choose Debian BTS to report it.
