Ah, in this instance I had upgraded to sid/unstable as I thought that
maybe some regression or something. I just purged and installed the
one on testing or if you want can get the sid/unstable one.
[$] apt-cache policy nano
nano:
Installed: 2.7.0-1

2.7.1-1 1

I would prefer you do it as you would have more understanding of what
gives than I. Please share the bug-report link so I can follow up as
