- Subject: [SM-Discuss] ncurses/termcap basesystem dilemma
- Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 15:08:52 +0300
Ncurses is in basesystem. Ncurses and termcap both provide TERMCAP and
conflict with eachother. Readline can use either one with a configure option
(although the readline spell depends on neither at the moment).
Should the user have the option to cast readline with termcap, leading to a
missing ncurses and a broken basesystem? If yes, should basesystem depend on
TERMCAP instead of ncurses? If no, should any spell actually depend on
TERMCAP at all?
