great. will this "next version" be included in 3.0 or is it post-3.0 ?

correct. but there is no /usr/local/teTeX/terminfo/ and I can't find
any terminfo data neither in tetex-src nor tetex-texmf or tetex-texmfsrc.
should usr/local/teTeX/terminfo be a symlink to the system terminfo files,
or what's the idea of
TERMINFO=$TEXMFMAIN/terminfo
