Description Wenzong.Fan 2013-07-10 02:36:46 UTC 
This is something similar with the bug:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4732

That bug has been marked as RESOLVED, but the TERM=xterm-color still causes python version check to fail on Fedora/OpenSuse. Open a specific one to track this issue.
Comment 1 Wenzong.Fan 2013-07-12 07:55:03 UTC 
To reproduce this bug with a simple ways:

1) build python sdk
2) export XTERM=xterm-256color; ./prebuilt-sdk-python -c "print 'hello'" |hexdump -c

Look for '1034h' from output, we expect output 'hello' but not '1034hhello'.

should be:

export TERM=xterm-256color;
