The reason for this can be found in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745479#31 and
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/ncurses.git/tree/debian/patches/03-debian-ncursesconfig-omit-L.diff
Cc'ing Sven Joachim to make him aware of this issue. Maybe this could
be fixed in ncurses itself, e.g. by always outputting "/usr/lib" or such.
Regards, Axel
