All free Unices abandoned termcap in favour of ncurses between 1992 and 1995.
Reason: tgetent() is inherently unsafe to use, it is designed to produce
buffer overflows, because the caller of this function and the implementation
of this function simply don't communicate about the size of the buffer.

It'd best to ditch this package, and use ncurses instead.
