+ fix regression from 20150704 (report/patch by Werner Fink).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 6 13:37:05 UTC 2015 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 20150606 pre-release
+ make ABI 6 the default by updates to dist.mk and VERSION, with the
intention that the existing ABI 5 should build as before using the
"--with-abi=5" option.
+ regenerate ada- and man-html documentation.
+ minor fixes to color- and util-manpages.
+ fix a regression in Ada95/gen/Makefile.in, to handle special case of
Cygwin, which uses the broken-linker feature.
+ amend fix for CF_NCURSES_CONFIG used in test/configure to assume that
ncurses package scripts work when present for cross-compiling, as the
lessor of two evils (cf: 20150530).

+ modify script used to generate map/sym files to mark 5.9.20150530 as
the last "5.9" version, and regenerated the files. That makes the
files not use ".current" for the post-5.9 symbols. This also
corrects the label for _nc_sigprocmask used in when weak symbols are
configured for the ncursest/ncursestw libraries (prompted by
discussion with Sven Joachim).
+ fix typo in NEWS (report by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 20150627
+ modify configure script to remove deprecated ABI 5 symbols when
building ABI 6.

suppressed from ABI 6 builds (Debian #788610).
+ comment-out "screen.xterm" entry, and inherit screen.xterm-256color
from xterm-new (report by Richard Birkett) -TD
+ modify read_entry.c to set the error-return to -1 if no terminal
databases were found, as documented for setupterm.
+ add test_setupterm.c to demonstrate normal/error returns from the
setupterm and restartterm functions.
+ amend cleanup change from 20110813 which removed redundant definition
of ret_error, etc., from tinfo_driver.c, to account for the fact that
it should return a bool rather than int (report/analysis by Johannes
Schindelin).
- Add ncurses patch 20150704
+ fix a few problems reported by Coverity.
+ fix comparison against "/usr/include" in misc/gen-pkgconfig.in
(report by Daiki Ueno, Debian #790548, cf: 20141213).

cf: 20150425, cf: 20100529).
- Add ncurses patch 20150523
+ add 'P' menu item to test/ncurses.c, to show pad in color.
+ improve discussion in curs_color.3x about color rendering (prompted
by comment on Stack Overflow forum):
+ remove screen-bce.mlterm, since mlterm does not do "bce" -TD
+ add several screen.XXX entries to support the respective variations
for 256 colors -TD
+ add putty+fnkeys* building-block entries -TD
+ add smkx/rmkx to capabilities analyzed with infocmp "-i" option.

+ change versioning for dpkg's in test-packages for Ada95 and
ncurses-examples for consistency with Debian, to work with package
updates.
+ regenerate html manpages.
+ clarify handling of carriage return in waddch manual page; it was
discussed only in the portability section (prompted by comment on
Stack Overflow forum):

ncurses with several related configurations and merges the results.
A further refinement is planned, to make the tic- and tinfo-library
symbols use the same versions across each of the four configurations
which are represented (reports by Sven Joachim, Werner Fink).

activate additional checks which compare the results from running
tparm() on the terminfo expressions versus the translated termcap

instead of <>.
+ samples/ncurses2-util.adb: removed unused with clause. The warning

definition from CPPFLAGS to CFLAGS if it happens to be needed for
Solaris, because g++ errors with that definition (report by
Jean-Pierre Flori, Sage #15268).
+ correct logic in infocmp's -i option which was intended to ignore
strings which correspond to function-keys as candidates for piecing
together initialization- or reset-strings. The problem dates to

+ added paragraph in keyname manpage telling how extended capabilities
are interpreted as key definitions.
+ modify tic's check of conflicting key definitions to include extended
capability strings in addition to the existing check on predefined
keys.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120421
+ improve cleanup of temporary files in tic using atexit().
+ add msgr to vt420, similar DEC vtXXX entries -TD
+ add several missing vt420 capabilities from vt220 -TD
+ factor out ansi+pp from several entries -TD
+ change xterm+sl and xterm+sl-twm to include only the status-line
capabilities and not "use=xterm", making them more generally useful
as building-blocks -TD
+ add dec+sl building block, as example -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120414
+ add consistency check in tic for screen's "XT" capability.
+ add section in terminfo.src summarizing the user-defined capabilities
used in that file -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120407
+ fix an inconsistency between tic/infocmp "-x" option; tic omits all
non-standard capabilities, while infocmp was ignoring only the user
definable capabilities.
+ improve special case in tic parsing of description to allow it to be
followed by terminfo capabilities. Previously the description had to
be the last field on an input line to allow tic to distinguish
between termcap and terminfo format while still allowing commas to be
embedded in the description.
+ correct variable name in gen_edit.sh which broke configurability of
the --with-xterm-kbs option.
+ revert 2011-07-16 change to "linux" alias, return to "linux2.2" -TD
+ further amend 20110910 change, providing for configure-script
override of the "linux" terminfo entry to install and changing the
default for that to "linux2.2" (Debian #665959).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120331
+ update Ada95/configure to use CF_DISABLE_ECHO (cf: 20120317).
+ correct order of use-clauses in st-256color -TD
+ modify configure script to look for gnatgcc if the Ada95 binding
is built, in preference to the default gcc/cc (suggested by
Nicolas Boulenguez).
+ modify configure script to ensure that the same -On option used for
the C compiler in CFLAGS is used for ADAFLAGS rather than simply
using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez)
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120324
+ amend an old fix so that next_char() exits properly for empty files,
e.g., from reading /dev/null (cf: 20080804).
+ modify tic so that it can read from the standard input, or from
a character device. Because tic uses seek's, this requires writing
the data to a temporary file first (prompted by remark by Sven
Joachim) (cf: 20000923).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120317
+ correct a check made in lib_napms.c, so that terminfo applications
can again use napms() (cf: 20110604).
+ add a note in tic.h regarding required casts for ABSENT_BOOLEAN
(cf: 20040327).
+ correct scripting for --disable-echo option in test/configure.
+ amend check for missing c++ compiler to work when no error is
reported, and no variables set (cf: 20021206).
+ add/use configure macro CF_DISABLE_ECHO.

+ modify configure script to allow creating dll's for MinGW when
cross-compiling.
+ add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and
strlcpy may be used. The same issue applies to OpenBSD's warnings
about snprintf, noting that this function is weakly standardized.
+ add configure checks for strlcat, strlcpy and snprintf, to help
reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
(cf:20111231)

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120204
+ improved tic -D option, avoid making target directory and provide
better diagnostics.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 30 16:13:37 UTC 2012 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120128

give verbose warnings (cf: 20110730).
+ modify misc/gen-edit.sh to make the location of the tabset directory
consistent with misc/Makefile.in, i.., using ${datadir}/tabset
(Debian #653435, patch by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120121
+ add --with-lib-prefix option to allow configuring for old/new flavors
of OS/2 EMX.
+ modify check for gnat version to allow for year, as used in FreeBSD
port.
+ modify check_existence() in db_iterator.c to simply check if the
path is a directory or file, according to the need. Checking for
directory size also gives no usable result with OS/2 (cf: 20120107).
+ support OS/2 kLIBC (patch by KO Myung-Han).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 16 16:36:44 UTC 2012 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120114
* several improvements to test/movewindow.c (prompted by discussion on
Linux Mint forum):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120107
* various improvments for MinGW (Juergen Pfeifer):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111231
* modify toe's report when -a and -s options are combined, to add
a column showing which entries belong to a given database.
* add -s option to toe, to sort its output.
* modify progs/toe.c, simplifying use of db-iterator results to use
caching improvements from 20111001 and 20111126.
* correct generation of pc-files when ticlib or termlib options are
given to rename the corresponding tic- or tinfo-libraries (report
by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111224
* document a portability issue with tput, i.e., that scripts which work
with ncurses may fail in other implementations that do no parameter
analysis.
* add putty-sco entry -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111217
* review/fix places in manpages where --program-prefix configure option
was not being used.
* add -D option to infocmp, to show the database locations that it
could use.
* fix build for the special case where term-driver, ticlib and termlib
are all enabled. The terminal driver depends on a few features in
the base ncurses library, so tic's dependencies include both ncurses
and termlib.
* fix build work for term-driver when --enable-wgetch-events option is
enabled.
* use <stdint.h> types to fix some questionable casts to void*.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111210
* modify configure script to check if thread library provides
pthread_mutexattr_settype(), e.g., not provided by Solaris 2.6
* modify configure script to suppress check to define _XOPEN_SOURCE
for IRIX64, since its header files have a conflict versus
_SGI_SOURCE.
* modify configure script to add ".pc" files for tic- and
tinfo-libraries, which were omitted in recent change (cf: 20111126).
* fix inconsistent checks on $PKG_CONFIG variable in configure script.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 20 11:05:51 UTC 2011 - coolo@suse.com
- remove call to suse_update_config (very old work around)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 5 13:33:46 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111203
* modify configure-check for etip.h dependencies, supplying a temporary
copy of ncurses_dll.h since it is a generated file (prompted by
Debian #646977).
* modify CF_CPP_PARAM_INIT "main" function to work with current C++.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 28 10:23:53 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111126
* correct database iterator's check for duplicate entries
(cf: 20111001).
* modify database iterator to ignore $TERMCAP when it is not an
absolute pathname.
* add -D option to tic, to show the database locations that it could
use.
* improve description of database locations in tic manpage.
* modify the configure script to generate a list of the ".pc" files to
generate, rather than deriving the list from the libraries which have
been built (patch by Mike Frysinger).
* use AC_CHECK_TOOLS in preference to AC_PATH_PROGS when searching for
ncurses*-config, e.g., in Ada95/configure and test/configure (adapted
from patch by Mike Frysinger).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 24 13:32:02 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Avoid linker script libterminfo.so as bash configure can not
handle this
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 24 12:17:08 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Use linker scripts to amke sure that libtinfo will be found
even if -ltinfo is missed on the linker command line
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 22 12:03:47 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111119
* remove obsolete/conflicting fallback definition for _POSIX_SOURCE
from curses.priv.h, fixing a regression with IRIX64 and Tru64
(cf: 20110416)
* modify _nc_tic_dir() to ensure that its return-value is nonnull,
i.e., the database iterator was not initialized. This case is needed
to when tic is translating to termcap, rather than loading the
database (cf: 20111001).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 18 12:00:10 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Update to tack 1.07-20110626
- Enlarge hash size for run time linker
- Enforce bind references to global function symbols to the
definition within libncurses and libtinfo
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 17 13:16:17 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111112
* add pccon entries for OpenBSD console (Alexei Malinin).
* build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 with gcc 4.2.1, setting _XOPEN_SOURCE to
600 to work around inconsistent ifdef'ing of wcstof between C and
C++ header files.
* modify capconvert script to accept more than exact match on "xterm",
e.g., the "xterm-*" variants, to exclude from the conversion (patch
by Robert Millan).
* fix a typo misc/Makefile.in, used in uninstalling pc-files.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111030
* modify make_db_path() to allow creating "terminfo.db" in the same
directory as an existing "terminfo" directory. This fixes a case
where switching between hashed/filesystem databases would cause the
new hashed database to be installed in the next best location -
root's home directory.
* add variable cf_cv_prog_gnat_correct to those passed to
config.status, fixing a problem with Ada95 builds (cf: 20111022).
* change feature test from _XPG5 to _XOPEN_SOURCE in two places, to
accommodate broken implementations for _XPG6.
* eliminate usage of NULL symbol from etip.h, to reduce header
interdependencies.
* add configure check to decide when to add _XOPEN_SOURCE define to
compiler options, i.e., for Solaris 10 and later (cf: 20100403).
This is a workaround for gcc 4.6, which fails to build the c++
binding if that symbol is defined by the application, due to
incorrectly combining the corresponding feature test macros
(report by Peter Kruse).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111022
* correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
(cf: 20110917).
* fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
gnat does not work.
* cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
internal functions of libncurses. The external interface of courses
uses bool, which still produces these warnings.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111015
* improve description of --disable-tic-depends option to make it
clear that it may be useful whether or not the --with-termlib
option is also given (report by Sven Joachim).
* amend termcap equivalent for set_pglen_inch to use the X/Open
"YI" rather than the obsolete Solaris 2.5 "sL" (cf: 990109).
* improve manpage for tgetent differences from termcap library.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111008
* moved static data from db_iterator.c to lib_data.c
* modify db_iterator.c for memory-leak checking, fix one leak.
* modify misc/gen-pkgconfig.in to use Requires.private for the parts
of ncurses rather than Requires, as well as Libs.private for the
other library dependencies (prompted by Debian #644728).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111001
* modify tic "-K" option to only set the strict-flag rather than force
source-output. That allows the same flag to control the parser for
input and output of termcap source.
* modify _nc_getent() to ignore backslash at the end of a comment line,
making it consistent with ncurses' parser.
* restore a special-case check for directory needed to make termcap
text files load as if they were databases (cf: 20110924).
* modify tic's resolution/collision checking to attempt to remove the
conflicting alias from the second entry in the pair, which is
normally following in the source file. Also improved the warning
message to make it simpler to see which alias is the problem.
* improve performance of the database iterator by caching search-list.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110925
* add a missing "else" in changes to _nc_read_tic_entry().
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110924
* modify _nc_read_tic_entry() so that hashed-database is checked before
filesystem.
* updated CF_CURSES_LIBS check in test/configure script.
* modify configure script and makefiles to split TIC_ARGS and
TINFO_ARGS into pieces corresponding to LDFLAGS and LIBS variables,
to help separate searches for tic- and tinfo-libraries (patch by Nick
Alcock aka "Nix").
* build-fix for lib_mouse.c changes (ch: 20110917).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110917
* fix compiler warning for clang 2.9
* improve merging of mouse events (integrated patch by Damien
Guibouret).
* correct mask-check used in lib_mouse for wheel mouse buttons 4/5
(patch by Damien Guibouret).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110910
* modify misc/gen_edit.sh to select a "linux" entry which works with
the current kernel rather than assuming it is always "linux3.0"
(cf: 20110716).
* revert a change to getmouse() which had the undesirable side-effect
of suppressing button-release events (report by Damien Guibouret,
cf: 20100102).
* add xterm+kbs fragment from xterm #272 -TD
* add configure option --with-pkg-config-libdir to provide control over
the actual directory into which pc-files are installed, do not use
the pkg-config environment variables (discussion with Frederic L W
Meunier).
* add link to mailing-list archive in announce.html.in, as done in
FAQ (prompted by question by Andrius Bentkus).
* improve manpage install by adjusting the "#include" examples to
show the ncurses-subdirectory used when --disable-overwrite option
is used.
* install an alias for "curses" to the ncurses manpage, tied to the
--with-curses-h configure option (suggested by Reuben Thomas).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110903
* propagate error-returns from wresize, i.e., the internal
increase_size and decrease_size functions through resize_term (report
by Tim van der Molen, cf: 20020713).
* fix typo in tset manpage (patch by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110820
* add a check to ensure that termcap files which might have "^?" do
not use the terminfo interpretation as "\177".
* minor cleanup of X-terminal emulator section of terminfo.src -TD
* add terminator entry -TD
* add simpleterm entry -TD
* improve wattr_get macros by ensuring that if the window pointer is
null, then the attribute and color values returned will be zero
(cf: 20110528).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110813
* add substitution for $RPATH_LIST to misc/ncurses-config.in
* improve performance of tic with hashed-database by caching the
database connection, using atexit() to cleanup.
* modify treatment of 2-character aliases at the beginning of termcap
entries so they are not counted in use-resolution, since these are
guaranteed to be unique. Also ignore these aliases when reporting
the primary name of the entry (cf: 20040501)
* double-check gn (generic) flag in terminal descriptions to
accommodate old/buggy termcap databases which misused that feature.
* minor fixes to _nc_tgetent(), ensure buffer is initialized even on
error-return.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110807
* improve rpath fix from 20110730 by ensuring that the new $RPATH_LIST
variable is defined in the makefiles which use it.
* build-fix for DragonFlyBSD's pkgsrc in test/configure script.
* build-fixes for NetBSD 5.1 with termcap support enabled.
* corrected k9 in dg460-ansi, add other features based on manuals -TD
* improve trimming of whitespace at the end of terminfo/termcap output
from tic/infocmp.
* when writing termcap source, ensure that colons in the description
field are translated to a non-delimiter, i.e., "=".
* add "-0" option to tic/infocmp, to make the termcap/terminfo source
use a single line.
* add a null-pointer check when handling the $CC variable.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110730
* modify configure script and makefiles in c++ and progs to allow the
directory used for rpath option to be overridden, e.g., to work
around updates to the variables used by tic during an install.
* add -K option to tic/infocmp, to provide stricter BSD-compatibility
for termcap output.
* add _nc_strict_bsd variable in tic library which controls the
"strict" BSD termcap compatibility from 20110723, plus these
features:
* allow escapes such as "\8" and "\9" when reading termcap
* disallow "\a", "\e", "\l", "\s" and "\:" escapes when reading
termcap files, passing through "a", "e", etc.
* expand "\:" as "\072" on output.
* modify _nc_get_token() to reset the token's string value in case
there is a string-typed token lacking the "=" marker.
* fix a few memory leaks in _nc_tgetent.
* fix a few places where reading from a termcap file could refer to
freed memory.
* add an overflow check when converting terminfo/termcap numeric
values, since terminfo stores those in a short, and they must be
positive.
* correct internal variables used for translating to termcap "%>"
feature, and translating from termcap %B to terminfo, needed by
tctest (cf: 19991211).
* amend a minor fix to acsc when loading a termcap file to separate it
from warnings needed for tic (cf: 20040710)
* modify logic in _nc_read_entry() and _nc_read_tic_entry() to allow
a termcap file to be handled via TERMINFO_DIRS.
* modify _nc_infotocap() to include non-mandatory padding when
translating to termcap.
* modify _nc_read_termcap_entry(), passing a flag in the case where
getcap is used, to reduce interactive warning messages.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110723
* add a check in start_color() to limit color-pairs to 256 when
extended colors are not supported (patch by David Benjamin).
* modify setcchar to omit no-longer-needed OR'ing of color pair in
the SetAttr() macro (patch by David Benjamin).
* add kich1 to sun terminfo entry (Yuri Pankov)
* use bold rather than reverse for smso in sun-color terminfo entry
(Yuri Pankov).
* improve generation of termcap using tic/infocmp -C option, e.g.,
to correspond with 4.2BSD (prompted by discussion with Yuri Pankov
regarding Schilling's test program):
* translate %02 and %03 to %2 and %3 respectively.
* suppress string capabilities which use %s, not supported by tgoto
* use \040 rather than \s
* expand null characters as \200 rather than \0
* modify configure script to support shared libraries for DragonFlyBSD.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110716
* replace an assert() in _nc_Free_Argument() with a regular null
pointer check (report/analysis by Franjo Ivancic).

* add SI/SO change to linux2.6 entry (Debian #515609) -TD
* fix inconsistent tabset path in pcmw (Todd C. Miller).
* remove a backslash which continued comment, obscuring altos3
definition with OpenBSD toolset (Nicholas Marriott).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110702
* add workaround from xterm #271 changes to ensure that compiler flags
are not used in the $CC variable.
* improve support for shared libraries, tested with AIX 5.3, 6.1 and
7.1 with both gcc 4.2.4 and cc.
* modify configure checks for AIX to include release 7.x

works properly, adapted from ncurses-5.7-ldflags-with-libtool.patch
at gentoo prefix repository (patch by Michael Haubenwallner).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110626
* move include of nc_termios.h out of term_entry.h, since the latter
is installed, e.g., for tack while the former is not (report by
Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110625
* improve cleanup() function in lib_tstp.c, using _exit() rather than
exit() and checking for SIGTERM rather than SIGQUIT (prompted by
comments forwarded by Nicholas Marriott).
* reduce name pollution from term.h, moving fallback #define's for
tcgetattr(), etc., to new private header nc_termios.h (report by

* add case to CF_SHARED_OPTS for Interix (patch by Markus Duft).
* used ncurses/link_test to check for behavior when the terminal has
not been initialized and when an application passes null pointers

* add environment variable NCURSES_GPM_TERMS to allow override to use
GPM on terminals other than "linux", etc.

* add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).
* document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted

* improve mlterm and mlterm+pcfkeys terminfo entries -TD
* add null-pointer checks for cur_term in baudrate() and
def_shell_mode(), def_prog_mode()

* modify test/ditto.c to illustrate multi-threaded use_screen().
* finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the
window's actual screen when calling wrefresh() and wgetnstr(). That
allows wgetch() to get used concurrently in different threads with
some minor restrictions, e.g., the application should not delete a
window which is being used in a wgetch().
* simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
* modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window
parameter rather than relying on SP; some dependent functions still
use SP internally.

* modify _nc_keypad() to make it switch temporarily as needed to the
screen which must be updated.

- Update auf die neuste ncurses-Version.
- 'xterm' ist fuer XFree86 3.1.2G. Falls jemand noch ein altes XFree86
benutzen will, sollte man 'xterm-base' verwenden.
- Falls es Probleme gibt, kann man anstatt /lib/libncurses.so.1.9.9g
auch /lib/libncurses.so.1.9.9e verwenden. (g-Version einfach umbenennen
und ldconfig starten.) Dann sollte man aber keine Programme mehr
kompilieren...
