ncspot: ncspot window looking corrupted/wrong

Describe the bug So, normally ncspot looks like normal ncurses, clean and straightforward. However, my terminal (Konsole) did not like that.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Open ncspot

Expected behavior I expected it to not look corrupted-ish, and I know how it’s supposed to look like, I had it installed on Debian and it looked just fine, but with Arch Linux, everything looks… wrong.

Screenshots i dont think thats how its supposed to look like

System (please complete the following information):

OS: Arch Linux
Terminal: Konsole
Version: 0.7.3
Installed from: cargo (AUR too, both ncspot and ncspot-git looked like this)

Backtrace/Debug log stderr.log

error: could not find `Cargo.toml` in `/home/atlas` or any parent directory

To debug crashes a backtrace is very helpful. Make sure you run a debug build of ncspot, e.g. by running the command mentioned in the link above. (I don’t quite think this is going to be very useful…)

Additional context It’s most likely an issue with Konsole. Or Arch.

The API for Spotify was having issues yesterday. I confirmed today with ncspot-0.5.0 on OpenBSD using export LANG="en_US.UTF-8" then running ncspot works in both xterm and st-256color.

localhost$ echo $TERM
xterm
localhost$ echo $LANG

localhost$

Looks like LANG isn’t set by default in OpenBSD. When I set it with export LANG="en_US.UTF-8" and then run ncspot it works.
