So far, simply appending ncurses to the Replaces field in the ncurses6 packages seems to be sufficient to handle that issue. > Jack There’s no reason to have a libncursesw6 package. Just have one libncurses6 package that always uses wide chars and have it C/R with regular ncurses. I posted packages to my experimental cvs dir quite a while ago and asked for opinions but nothing came of it. There’s also newer versions available. Most recent version is http://invisible-mirror.net/archives/ncurses/current/ncurses-6.0-20161001.tgz. Packages are at http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/experimental/danielj/ Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [email protected] List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
