[Bug 34153] New: wine does not restore mode of direction keys properly

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34153

Bug #: 34153
           Summary: wine does not restore mode of direction keys properly
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.6
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Wine seems to change the up key from ^[[A to ^[OA but not always back (reliably
reproducible on unclean exits / crashes and such, but randomly happens after
clean exits too).

1) open terminal (tested in bash / zsh; with xfce4-terminal and lxterminal)
2) ctrl+v [up key] should give you: ^[[A
3) winecfg
4) ctrl+c in terminal to end winecfg
5) ctrl+v [up key] now gives you: ^[OA

This can - depending on shell configuration - temporarily break features like
p.e. bash history search bound to up/down ^[[A (but not explicitly ^[OA) and
leave end-users clueless due to the subtle / weird nature of the unexpected
behaviour.

That being said: Not sure if (wine) bug or (for some reason I can't grasp)
normal / intended behaviour. All I know is it took me quite a while and also
help to figure out what's happening and how to work around it.

Duplicate of bug 25843?

Sounds related. Not sure if identical. Sry, I don't know how stuff is called or
works, so I can only guess:

I don't think mine has anything to do with inputrc settings. The inputrc
settings and the key binds in my shell configuration are the same before and
after running wine - they stay untouched (this was the first thing I tested
when searching for the problem, because the symptoms would have been
identical).

Don't know how that "key event mode thing" that is changed by wine is really
called, but bug 31210 which is marked as a duplicate of before mentioned bug
sounds closer to the problem I am having. Not sure if "keyboard escape sequence
mapping" is the right word though, either.

IF those 3 are really the same bug, it would maybe be a good idea to remove the
"inputrc settings" attribution from the summary and for someone who knows how
all that stuff is actually called should give it a better name. At least in my
case, a "loss of some inputrc settings" is clearly NOT what is happening.

Couldn't reproduce this on Wine Staging 5.0. Can someone test on upstream Wine?
