See       > https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter08/ncurses.html       > for an excellent schpiel on how to potentially fix it.              Yes, I have run into it before with XPoint I think it was. XPoint didn't like       my slackware but it might like gentoo better. There was/is some kind of       workaround for that but I forget what it is.              There is a new LFS book out a few months ago. I've been reading it and       pondering converting the BBS machine to LFS. I bet golded would run fine on       that.              Gentoo builds ncurses with a "tinfo" use flag. That is not a generally used       flag and I am not sure if I can or should disable it.              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-6        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 10/0 1 15/0 90/1 92/1 102/401 103/1 705 105/81 106/201       SEEN-BY: 114/709 120/340 123/131 124/5016 129/305 134/100 153/135       SEEN-BY: 153/141 757 6809 7001 7715 154/10 203/0 214/22 218/0 1 109       SEEN-BY: 218/215 501 650 700 810 820 830 840 850 860 870 880 221/0       SEEN-BY: 221/1 6 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 114 206 307 317       SEEN-BY: 229/400 424 426 428 452 470 550 616 664 700 240/1120 5832       SEEN-BY: 266/512 267/67 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854 8125 301/1 113       SEEN-BY: 301/812 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 633/280 712/848 770/1 5020/545 1042       SEEN-BY: 5058/104       PATH: 153/757 280/464 301/1 218/700 229/426           |
