The ncurses in the base system is way too old, say 5.2. Now we have 5.6 in the portstree. I have a mega patch that update the base system's ncurses to 5.6. To test it, cd /usr/src fetch http://people.freebsd.org/~rafan/ncurses/ncurses-5.6-fbsd7-20070106.diff.gz mkdir -p lib/ncurses/form lib/ncurses/menu lib/ncurses/ncurses lib/ncurses/panel zcat ncurses-5.6-fbsd7-20070106.diff.gz | patch -p0 Then, make a new world see if anything if broken. According to the author, the ABI should be compatible. So, there is no need to recompile your ports. The rest information can be found at http://people.freebsd.org/~rafan/ncurses/ Comments and feedback are welcome! Regards, Rong-En FanReceived on Sat Jan 06 2007 - 08:17:15 UTC
