Title:
  Problem with urxvt + zsh + backspace

Status in “rxvt-unicode” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I use urxvt in combination with zsh. However since my fresh install of
  ubuntu 10.04 I have the following problem. If I type backspace the
  cursor moves to the right (instead of deleting the characters on the
  left).

  Suppose I typed n characters then pressing backspace n-times moves the
  cursor n- positions to the left, if I type backspace then one more,
  the cursor doesn't move anymore.

  If I type the left arrow, nothing happens, if I type the right arrow
  afterwards a some character occurs.

  mv .zshrc .zshrc.bak
  mv .Xdefaults .Xdefaults.bak

  didn't help.

  urxvt + bash works fine as well as xterm + zsh.

  zsh-version: 4.3.11-4ubuntu2.is.3ubuntu1 rxvt-unicode version: 9.09-3

  Any idea how to fix this?
