Hi list,

I just migrated from a MacBook Air to a new MacBook Pro. I tried to upgrade first all outdated ports, when failed I tried to upgrad all installed ports (I thought there may be a problem from the migration) but it fails also at ncurses. The installation process hangs after the following output:

  You may see messages regarding extended capabilities, e.g., AX.
  These are extended terminal capabilities which are compiled
  using
        tic -x
  If you have ncurses 4.2 applications, you should read the INSTALL
  document, and install the terminfo without the -x option.

I googled and found that this may be a dependency problem, so I tried to upgrad ncursesw manually after cleaning both ncurses and ncursesw. But upgrading ncrusesw fails, too, with the following messages:

---> Unable to uninstall ncursesw 5.7_0, the following ports depend on it:
  --->    ncurses
  Warning: Uninstall forced.  Proceeding despite dependencies.
Error: Uninstall ncursesw 5.7_0 failed: Registry error: Please specify the name of the port.

So, ncursesw cannot be updated because it depends on ncurses, and ncurses cannot be updated because it depends on ncursesw (which it doesn't know). Now, how can I do an `upgrade outdated`?

Need help :)!

Greetings,
 matt

P.S.: I noticed that there are two versions of ncurses installed:

   The following ports are currently installed:
     ncurses @5.6_0 (active)
     ncurses @5.7_0 (active)

Is this a problem?
