Terminal.Gui: Debian issues, Unhandled exception

Hi All,

i have a console Application which is running fine on windows. Now i built it for linux-x64 and wanted it to run on my debian 10 machine. I get the following error and have no clue where to look for issues.

Unhandled exception. System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. (Parameter 'Value is beyond the supplementary range!') at System.Rune..ctor(UInt32 rune) at System.Rune.op_Implicit(UInt32 value) at Terminal.Gui.CursesDriver.Init(Action terminalResized) at Terminal.Gui.Application.Init(Func1 topLevelFactory, ConsoleDriver driver, IMainLoopDriver mainLoopDriver) at Terminal.Gui.Application.Run[T]() at my.Program.Main() Aborted

Sorry in advance if this is a easy fix but i couldnt find anything related yet.

On WSL (Debian and Ubuntu) I am getting the same error. Will try another distro soon too. I am still using Terminal gui 0.9 can that be an issue?

I really don’t know as I’m using the latest master version. Please try with this version and then say anything.

I tried all and didnt work. I ended up copying all my code to a new solution… this worked… i dunno what fucked up my old one.

Sorry for all the inconveniences and thank you for your help!
