I don't recall any version of zsh setting _tty. Debian 9 doesn't set it either.

Ah!  Dumb question, it was my own variable.  I have this:

    if [[ $TERM == 'xterm' ]]; then

        _tty="${TTY#/dev/pts/}"

... but what's changed is the $TERM used to be "xterm" but is now"xterm-256color" so that's where the problem is. Easy to fix.

Do we have some way of erasing a question entirely from the site? Aquestion like this one shouldn't even have been asked, it's justpollution. Thanks Roman.
