Package: libtinfo5 Version: 5.9-4 Severity: normal Configuring ncurses --with-default-terminfo-dir=/usr/share/terminfo, as we have been doing since 5.7+20100313-1, has the unfortunate side effect that tic(1) writes to /usr/share/terminfo instead of /etc/terminfo by default when run as root (overridable with the -o option).
I'm reluctant to revert the change, since that would mean reintroducing bug #509919. Maybe a new option for `configure' is necessary after all. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-rc7-nouveau (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libtinfo5 depends on: ii libc6 2.13-24 ii multiarch-support 2.13-24 libtinfo5 recommends no packages. libtinfo5 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
