Powerline Multiline and other powerline based themes line wrap broken

[HarmonyTechLabs]

Summary

I have been using the powerline multiline theme and have noticed that now when typing long commands line wrap no longer functions, it continues the command on the same line. If I review the command history and pull up a multi-line command, it will screw up the screen and gobble up lines. I have posted before and after photos of this behavior in the photos at the bottom.

I will happily perform any troubleshooting steps or provide any more information that you might need on the system. I've temporarily switched to another theme as a work around. It does appear that it affects other powerline based themes as well, not just multi-line. I will go through the bundled themes and generate a list with the issue if requested.

OK, I can reproduce the problem with Ubuntu/WSL connected from Windows Terminal.

Somehow it doesn't reproduce when I connect to Arch Linux w/ bash-5.16 using ssh from Windows Terminal. I also checked the behavior in my usual environment Fedora w/ bash-5.2.15, but it doesn't reproduce either. Another thing I noticed is that it produces the error message of setlocale on the startup, but the error message doesn't appear in the nested Bash session.

Interesting... Let me post my .bashrc file, maybe I broke something in there when I added micromamba additions to the bottom.

I've done some more testing on this, wiped out the bashrc and started with a fresh one, as soon as I reinstall, the line wrap breaks. I've also tried directly on the console with the same results. Is there anything you'd like me to test or try to help figure out where the issue is?

[akinomyoga]

Thanks for more testing. I've been just busy recently. Since I could reproduce it in one of my environments, I think I can solve it when I have time.

[HarmonyTechLabs]

Ah hah! I totally understand that. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into the project, and I apologize if I came across as pushy.
