+zsh (4.3.17-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ This update includes a rewrite of keyboard handling in `/etc/zsh/zshrc'.
+
+ The used method should be quite a bit more robust than the old one, and
+ should work out of the box for every terminal with a working terminfo entry.
+
+ If you do not want Debian's zshrc to mess with your keyboard setup, set the
+ following variable in your `.zshenv' file:
+
+ DEBIAN_PREVENT_KEYBOARD_CHANGES=yes
+
+ This change also removes the controversial vi-* bindings for the up and down
+ cursor keys (which was reported as #383737 and led to confusion with a
+ substantial number of users). If you want them back use the following snippet
+ in your `.zshrc' file (and without the above variable set):
+
+ for i in viins vicmd; do
+ bindkey -M "$i" "${key[Up]}" vi-up-line-or-history
+ bindkey -M "$i" "${key[Down]}" vi-down-line-or-history
+ done
+ unset i
