Backspace key not working on Karaf console

[eschizoid]

When logging into the Karaf Console using the following command:

docker exec -it aa51cbf7d3f6 /openhab/runtime/karaf/bin/client the backspace key is behaving as the space key.

This is not happening when using karaf/bin/shell

I could reproduce and solve this issue. The problem is the environment variable TERM. This variable seems to be set to export TERM=xterm after attaching to the conatainer, but it is not! After running export export TERM=xterm the backsoace key works as expected in client console.

I found some other bug reports with more information. It seems to be a docker issue. Here you can find some more information:

dockerfile/mariadb#3
moby/moby#26461

PR #51 will solve this issue for now... maybe in the future there will be a better solution.

PR #51 merged, I close this issue.
