Re: [avail for test] ncurses-5.3-1


Hearing no objections after a month in 'test' status, I am promoting these packages to 'curr'. (Note: the recent terminfo issues are orthogonal to the ncurses packages listed below.)

Note2: I have replaced the "dummy" source package for release/ncurses/libncurses6/libncurses6-5.2-8-src.tar.bz2 (size 526 bytes) with a copy of release/ncurses/ncurses-5.2-8-src.tar.bz2 (size 1.7M). libncurses6 had a dummy source package because it predated the external-source: key in setup.hint. Think about what happens to the release/ncurses/ directory when ncurses-5.3-2 comes out, and you'll understand why I had to make this copy.

Any comments on this, or should I just go-for-broke (literally) and mark it current? It's been over two weeks, and ncurses is in 'Base' ya know...

I've placed updated versions of the ncurses packages on sourceware, but have marked them 'test'. In order to install them, you must use setup and pick the 'Exp'erimental radio button on the chooser.

The new packages:
  ncurses-5.3-1
  ncurses-demo-5.3-1
  libncurses-devel-5.3-1
  libncurses7-5.3-1
  ncurses-5.3-1-src
