[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 273 bytes --]

Hello,

cal utility segfaults in putp() when setupterm() fails as cal
insufficiently checks for setupterm() failure.

$ TERM= cal
Segmentation fault

Please find details in 

https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903440

especially in comment 4.

Petr
