The header files can be merged. That is, the ncursesw version of curses.h includes all of the definitions in ncurses' curses.h . There are several possibilities for the header-files, depending on what the packager wants to do. Your comment about copying from Debian reminds me of Redhat, whose packagers add symbolic links and move things around, making it hard to write usable configure-checks. It sounds as if there is someplace in the configure script that I should examine more closely to see if I can improve it (or review in case I have fixed this). -- Thomas E.
