Yes, this was quite pointless, I guess it got inherited from some old version where it was needed. But I decided to take this opportunity and improve Gentoo's support for NLS in dpkg's ebuild. And to help with this I'm sending a tiny patch for dpkg to this list :-) > “sed -i "s:ncursesw/::" dselect/{Makefile.in,dselect.h,main.cc} > #217046” > > The correct header should be detected and used now. Yes, that was also quite pointless, and the problem is that because the ac_cv_lib_ncursesw_initscr=no export still works, when emerged with USE=-unicode the ebuild used the headers from ncursesw but linked against narrow char ncurses.so (which stupid and dangerous). So thanks for helping me notice this too! I also made a patch for dpkg's ./configure script to accept --disable-unicode flag that makes it to ignore ncursesw variant even if it is installed. Sending to the list too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
