Package: python3.1
Version: 3.1.2+20101012-1
Severity: normal
curses.tigetstr() returns bytes (which makes sense), but curses.tparm() expects
a Unicode string as first argument. As a consequence even the example given in
the documentation doesn't work:
from curses import *
setupterm()
tparm(tigetstr("cup"), 5, 3)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: must be string, not bytes

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of
python (2.5/3.1), that was last released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze). But
even squeeze-lts has now reached end-of-life and is no longer supported.
The bug is assumed to be fixed (or no longer relevant) in newer python
releases and therefore I'm closing this report now. If the problem is
still reproducible in the currently supported versions (python2.7,
python3.5/python3.6), feel free to provide more information, reopen
and reassign this bug report.
