Unaffected images versions
- v2021 (no problem)
Steps to reproduce
Ordered list detailing every step so other developers can reproduce the issue. Include hardware which you used.
- Use SDK or BASE SDK
- Add archive from attachment to apertis-image-recipes. This adds a call of a shell script, which install Kanto from Eclipse.
- Call debos with parameters "sudo debos -t architecture:amd64 -t ospack:ospack-apertis-amd64 --debug-shell apertis-image-recipes/ospack-fixedfunction-test.yaml"
Expected result
Build logs are put to screen, shell prompt will occur after that.
Actual result
After installation the xfce terminal is getting corrupted. Not input possible, all outputs are written at the last line. A reset of terminal settings from Terminal=>Reset helps.
Reproducibility

Outcomes
