Second option from my feedback.
Is there a way to reuse the ncurses format 1:1, the same directory
layout, file format and suffixes? This would make our version a ready
drop-in replacement and predictable behavior for $TERMINFO and similar
env(1) variables.
A benefit of this approach is to reuse
I think it would be good to make the database modular, and to stop
requiring having everything in one binary blob. I don't see any
downsides to Roy's suggestion.

Other ideas welcome on how to allow pkgsrc to integrate terminfo
