Your bug report (which I > cannot reproduce) seems to be related to a build error rather than a > runtime one. https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2845#c7 After you fix the build error, I wrote that we should built ncurses with configure option --with-termlib=tinfo , which Fedora use by default . And you wrote to make a "patch adding optional tinfo build" , I done one draft of the patch. Since this bug in runtime, seems to be with terminfo, build with option --with-termlib=tinfo , doesn't solve the problem ? > I've now just tested with a glibc toolchain (E.G > qemu_arm_versatile_defconfig and select external codesourcery 2010.09 > toolchain) and stuff using ncurses (I tried htop) also crashes here, so > it doesn't seem to be something specific to uclibc. > > I've also tested ncurses 5.9 with the same results. with 2011.05 getting > quite near, perhaps the best approach is to revert to ncurses 5.7? > -- S?rgio M.
