Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/37178

Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Steps to reproduce (Maybe there are other ways of getting this):

1) Open terminal
2) Type 'gpg -e'
3) Enter any Key-ID you want
4) Press Enter twice
    Some strange characters appear
5) Now press Ctrl + c

Sometimes the character encoding remains the same and you can't read
anything you write then.

I'm using Ubuntu Dapper with the latest gnome-terminal packages.
