Comment (by pierre.labastie):
Very lentghy release notes in the NEWS file, whose beginning is:
{{{
These notes are for ncurses 6.2, released February 12, 2020.
This release is designed to be source-compatible with ncurses 5.0
through 6.1; providing extensions to the application binary interface
(ABI). Although the source can still be configured to support the
ncurses 5 ABI, the reason for the release is to reflect improvements
to the ncurses 6 ABI and the supporting utility programs.
There are, of course, numerous other improvements, listed in this
announcement.
The most important bug-fixes/improvements dealt with user-defined
capabilities in terminal descriptions. The release notes also mention
some other bug-fixes, but are focused on new features and improvements
to existing features since ncurses 6.1 release.
