[Bug 2073688] Re: /usr/lib/kitty/kitty/options/definition.py:4116: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\e' long_text='''

[Graham Inggs]

This FTBFS for me, it looks like the same error reported to Debian [1].
If you get it to build, please provide a log or link to a PPA build.

Title:
  /usr/lib/kitty/kitty/options/definition.py:4116: SyntaxWarning:
  invalid escape sequence '\e'   long_text='''

Status in kitty package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in kitty source package in Noble:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  The package displays a warning when installing it or upgrading it
  from a previous version. This warning can scare users who see it
  in the terminal.

  [ Test Plan ]

  Try to install the patched package and verify that it still starts
  fine. Check that the warning is gone when installing or upgrading
  the package.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Fixing the string wrongly can make the program behave wrongly.

  [ Original Bug Report ]

  Hello,

  During the upgrade of kitty, I get the following warning:

  Setting up kitty (0.32.2-1ubuntu0.1) ...
  /usr/lib/kitty/kitty/options/definition.py:4116: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\e'
    long_text='''

  I this this file should be patched so the warning does not appear
  during upgrade.
