#3001: xterm instruction forcing TERMINFO=/usr/lib/terminfo
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: omero | Owner: blfs-b...@…
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.5
Component: BOOK | Version: SVN
Severity: normal | Keywords: xterm terminfo ncurses
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
In current blfs-svn book, the xterm chapter will force configuration
with TERMINFO=/usr/lib/terminfo, whit the following rationale:
{{{
TERMINFO=/usr/lib/terminfo: This ensures that the xterm terminfo
file is installed to the system terminfo database
when the installation prefix is not /usr.
}}}
However, Ncurses-5.7 (lfs-6.5, chapter 6) gets configured to store
terminfo database in /usr/share/terminfo (`tic' command uses
that path by default).
