Package: libtinfo6
Version: 6.1+20180210-4
I'm not sure what are the exact circumstances, but tiparm("") sometimes
returns NULL instead of empty string:
$ make test-tiparm LDLIBS=-ltinfo
cc test-tiparm.c -ltinfo -o test-tiparm
$ ./test-tiparm
tiparm("") = NULL
tiparm("foo") = "foo"
tiparm("") = ""

Architecture: i386
Versions of packages libtinfo6 depends on:
ii libc6 2.27-3

void test_tiparm(const char *s)
{
const char *t = tiparm(s);
printf("tiparm(\"%s\") = ", s);
if (t)
printf("\"%s\"", t);
else
printf("NULL");
printf("\n");
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
setupterm(NULL, 1, NULL);
test_tiparm("");
test_tiparm("foo");
test_tiparm("");
return 0;
}

Closes: 900839 900987 902630
Changes:
ncurses (6.1+20180714-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* New upstream patchlevel.
- Fix a case where tiparm could return null if the format-string was
empty (Closes: #902630).
- Reduce use of _GNU_SOURCE for current glibc where _DEFAULT_SOURCE
combines with _XOPEN_SOURCE (Closes: #900987).
- Modify generated ncurses*config and ncurses.pc, ncursesw.pc, etc.,
to list helper libraries such as gpm for static linking (see #900839).
* Refresh Debian patches.
* Stop building special debug libraries, and mark the -dbg packages as
Multi-Arch: same (Addresses: #849003).
* Build the static libraries without gpm support (Closes: #900839).
* Upgrade Standards-Version to 4.1.5, no changes needed.
