Subject: Re: [PATCH] kconfig: add tinfo library if it exists to lxdialog linking flags
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:20:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150429152050.GC2752@freedom> (raw)

Did a little bit of investigation and got in touch with ncurses developer.

The pkg-config file in the official ncurses distribution has been broken for
years (I'm the second one to report this bug since 2011).

acs_map symbol declaration misled me. Then, yes, do disregard my patch.
 
Since the fix is closed to a typo fix, it has been silently fixed by all
distros out there with a shared split ncurses package, without reporting it
upstream (and that's quite a fail).

At least, the info is now in all mailing list archives :)

regards,
