Hello.
Our current libreadline in /hipster is not linked to libtermcap.so. This
causes issues when applications don't add "-ltermcap" linker flag.
We have the following patch

applied in /dev.

Currently I applied patch from /dev...

BTW: what do you like to achieve?

In Oracle userland components dependent on readline explicitly add "-ltermcap" to LDFLAGS to avoid similar issues: http://pastebin.com/BJnyBDta . Some applications configure scripts know about this Solaris peculiarity, some doesn't.

I'd like programs linking with libreadline just work without explicit linking to libtermcap. The fix is coming from OpenIndiana /dev branch:
https://www.illumos.org/issues/415


Do you know that -ltermcap on Solaris does not give you a real termcap library
but a termcap emulation using terminfo?
