Hey Alan!

Let me know where to get the golded source in question and I will give it a go.

 AI> Gentoo builds ncurses with a "tinfo" use flag. That is not a

Until we're sure what the real issue is I'd leave it alone.  LFS doesn't but if it turns out to need it then adding "--with-termlib=tinfo" might make all the difference.  That is what slackware does when building it's ncurses-6.3 libs and apps.

Life is good,
Maurice
