Package: ncurses
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
It would be very useful to have a lib32ncursesw5 in addition to the
other lib32 ncurses libraries. I've attached a patch to version 5.6
+20071124-1 which provides lib32ncursesw5 and lib32ncursesw5-dev
packages.
There's one less-than-admirable part of the patch, namely explicitly
setting BUILD_CPPFLAGS="-D_GNU_SOURCE". That flag is required to
compile the wide character support, and configure correctly figures out
that it is needed, but unfortunately it's not passed on to the native
build flags if
cross-compiling.
Thanks!
Diab Jerius
P.S. The request for this is driven by the recent release of one of the
major astronomy software packages (CIAO, from
http://asc.harvard.edu/ciao/). Unfortunately the only binary packages
are for Fedora. While source is provided (and it's GPL'd), CIAO is not
simple to compile, so without lib32ncursesw, most Debian x86_64 users
will not be able to run it.

# This is a patch for ncurses-5.6+20071124.orig to update it to ncurses-5.6+20071124
#
# To apply this patch:
# STEP 1: Chdir to the source directory.
# STEP 2: Run the 'applypatch' program with this patch file as input.
#
# If you do not have 'applypatch', it is part of the 'makepatch' package
# that you can fetch from the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network:
# http://www.perl.com/CPAN/authors/Johan_Vromans/makepatch-x.y.tar.gz
# In the above URL, 'x' should be 2 or higher.
#
# To apply this patch without the use of 'applypatch':
# STEP 1: Chdir to the source directory.
# If you have a decent Bourne-type shell:
# STEP 2: Run the shell with this file as input.
# If you don't have such a shell, you may need to manually create
# the files as shown below.
# STEP 3: Run the 'patch' program with this file as input.
#
# These are the commands needed to create/delete files/directories:
#
touch 'debian/lib32ncursesw5-dev.files'
chmod 0644 'debian/lib32ncursesw5-dev.files'
touch 'debian/lib32ncursesw5.files'
chmod 0644 'debian/lib32ncursesw5.files'

# This command terminates the shell and need not be executed manually.
