Hi, no I'm not suggesting to build it on your own. Trying to resummarize:
TL;DR - ncurses is not at (ABI) 6, so htop doesn#t get scroll wheel support atm Details: 1. htop 2.x + Ncurse 6 = scroll wheel 2. Ncurse is at source version 6 3. But Ncurse is built with API=5 to behave like before 4. Due to that htop does not get the scroll wheel functionality atm And I was no part of that build or decision I don't know any details. It was just FYI as I have seen the bug and realized this special build option. If you are interested what I mean search for .so.5 and .so.6 In https://launchpadlibrarian.net/356722560/buildlog_ubuntu-bionic-amd64.ncurses_6.1-1ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Lubuntu Packages Team, which is subscribed to htop in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1730143 Title: no response to scroll wheel Status in htop package in Ubuntu: New Status in htop package in Debian: New Bug description: ". . . new in htop 2.0 . . .
