The screen upgrade is worth a good look: First of all the new GPLv3 version required quite a bit of build system patching. Also as far as I can tell the existing recipe contains a debian patch which itself contains 40 patches that are never applied to the actual sources. My patch removes this unnecessary download and does not try to apply the 40 patches (with the logic that 19000 lines of patch should be done in separate commits _if_ they are necessary): the functionality of screen 4.0.3 should not change with this commit.
Suggestions for other solutions are welcome as well.
