Hi,
I've seen ncurses FTBFS three times now and still no clue why. The
symptom is that the build hangs at:
| test -d /tmp/buildd/ncurses-5.9+20150516/obj-test || mkdir
/tmp/buildd/ncurses-5.9+20150516/obj-test
| cd /tmp/buildd/ncurses-5.9+20150516/obj-test && CFLAGS="-g -O2
-fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security"

--bindir=/usr/lib/ncurses/examples --with-ncursesw

At this point, attaching the main configure shell reveals that it
continuously calls stat:
| stat("/tmp/buildd/ncurses-5.9+20150516/obj-wide/include/ncursesw",
0x7ffd1feb0220) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
The generated configure scrip contains a snippet that roughly resembles:
| while test $cf_add_incdir != /usr/include; do
| if test -d $cf_add_incdir; then
| ...
| # no else branch
| fi
| done
I've seen this in a native amd64 reproducible build on
jenkins.debian.net:
https://jenkins.debian.net/job/reproducible_builder_alpha/46528/console
(the above excerpt is from this log)
I've also seen this in a cross build for x32 and a cross build for i386.
https://jenkins.debian.net/job/rebootstrap_i386_gcc49_nobiarch/139/console
In the x32 build (no log available), I created the directory being
stat()ed. At that point, the build continued and finished successfully.
Both cross builds set DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="nocheck parallel=1".
Notably, the reproducible jenkins job was able to build this version of
ncurses earlier, so it seems that something else is the cause. The
buildds had no problems building it either.
This is all I know.
If the bug does not receive sufficient detail to be diagnosed, it should
be closed within one month of inactivity.
Helmut

* Move the ncurses{w,}5-config scripts back to ncurses-bin
(Closes: #786436, reopens: #745479).
- Readd the dependency of the -dev packages on ncurses-bin.
- Temporarily add a build-dependency on libncursesw5-dev to
avoid the FTBFS problem in #786436.
