Subject: silc client fails if terminal is resized during passphrase prompt
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 21:40:53 -0400
Package: silc
Version: 1.1.4-1+b1
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

The silc client fails if the controlling terminal is resized while the
private key passphrase prompt is present.

Steps to reproduce:  

0) Open a resizable terminal emulator (konsole, gnome-terminal, rxvt,
   etc).

1) launch silc within that terminal

2) While the "Private key passphrase: " prompt is visible, resize the
   terminal

The silc client briefly emits "silc: Interrupted system call" and
"[Error]: Could not load key pair" before terminating with status code
1.

I'm afraid i don't have a fix for this behavior.
