(closes:Bug#42357) - Now depends on libncurses5 (= ${Source-Version) (closes:Bug#35422) - Add devel symlinks for libtermcap for user convenience. - Don't make /usr/include/ncurses symlink anymore. * ncurses-bin: - Move man5 and man7 man pages here (closes:Bug#20291). - Bug #27607 apparently fixed upstream: + modify _nc_set_writedir() to set a flag in _nc_tic_dir() to prevent it from changing the terminfo directory after chdir'ing to it. Otherwise, a relative path in $TERMINFO would confuse tic (from a Debian bug report).

Dassen (Ray) Wed, 29 Jul 1998 14:22:50 +0200 ncurses (1.9.9g-8.9) hamm-updates; urgency=high (security fix) * [ncurses/{read_termcap,read_entry}.c] Security fix for setuid operation: switch to user's priviledges on file operations. (based on ncurses-1.9.9e-setuid.patch courtesy of Red Hat). -- J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) Sun, 26 Jul 1998 16:53:38 +0200 ncurses (1.9.9g-8.8) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Non-maintainer upload. * The debugging version in ncurses3.4-dbg was not actually compiled with -g. This makes it rather unuseful. It's due to an error in the configure.in, which refers to variables ac_cv_prog_gcc_g and ac_cv_prog_gxx_g to check if "-O2 -g" is supported. This should be ac_cv_prog_cc_g and ac_cv_prog_cxx_g instead. Fixed. * debian/xterm.ti had a "blink@" entry for the xterm terminal, which cancels the blink capability ("mb"). Since it has no "use" line, the use resolver is never called for it, which leaves the "CANCEL" value in the compiled info for xterm. tgetstr() does not check for cancelled values, so it returns the CANCELLED_STRING value which is not a valid pointer. Fixed by having tgetstr() return NULL for cancelled values. This fixes the bug that causes screen to crash in an xterm (bug#23998). -- Richard Braakman Fri, 17 Jul 1998 12:37:49 +0200 ncurses (1.9.9g-8.7) frozen unstable; urgency=low * For reasons that I don't understand, using ncurses3.4 >= 1.9.9g-8.1 with ncurses3.4-dev 1.9.9g-8.6 causes lxdialog (kernel's make menuconfig) to segfault. Changed the dependency to >= Source-Version. (Fixes release-critical #24392). * More manpages fixes (Fixes #24400): * [aclocal.m4] Rewrote the manpages fixing code somewhat so that references like "\fBcurses\fR(3X), " get handled correctly * [man/curs_termcap.3x] Minor changes, so that references get translated properly. * [man/man_db.renames] Added terminfo.\*n and curs_terminfo.\*n . -- J.H.M.

(this broke "screen"). * Despite the bad karma with -8.4, I still feel strongly that this should go into frozen, due to the amount and severity of the bugs it fixes. -- J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) Mon, 25 May 1998 15:56:36 +0200 ncurses (1.9.9g-8.4) frozen unstable; urgency=high (fixes coredumps and makes documentation usable) * [progs/tput.c] Corrected the handling of error returns from setupterm() (to the way ncurses 4.2 does it). Fixes the "tput dumps core on unknown TERM" bug. (Fixes #5600). * [progs/toe.c] Set pointers to NULL after free-ing (like ncurses 4.2 does) This fixes the "toe segfaults on megatek" bug. (Fixes #22280). * Fixed manpages and their cross-references: (Fixes #2806, #5363, #6822, #7889, #9977, #15120, #15637, #15088, #10064, #18669). * [aclocal.m4] Fixed the generation of the manpage transformation sed script so that it also transforms references like \fBcurs_refresh\fR(3X) . Warning: attempts to understand this code may cause psychological trauma due to exposure to quoting hell. * [man/{curs_bkgd,resizeterm,wresize}.3x] Removed otherwise empty "." lines between .TH and .SH lines which caused whatis parse to fail. * [debian/rules, debian/routines.pl] Added links for the ncurses and form routines to the appropriate manpages. * Include tutorial (misc/ncurses-intro.{doc,html) in the development package. * [misc/ncurses-intro.doc] Corrected umlaut in Juergen's first name. -- J.H.M.

Dassen (Ray) Wed, 13 May 1998 18:40:28 +0200 ncurses (1.9.9g-8.1) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Non-maintainer upload. * Added a new xterm terminfo entry: kbs changed from ^H to \177 and kdch1 from \177 to \E[3~ (per policy) (addresses part of #21914). * Make /usr/lib/libn?curses.so absolute rather than symbolic links (as per policy) (fixes #21913). * aclocal.m4: Invoke gzip with '-9'. * Generated "configure" with up to date autoconf; the old configure needed libg++-dev (the test for handling of type bool used ). Thus, "bool" is properly detected (fixes #20534, #17763). * Updated shlibs to >= this version, just in case the bool issue affects compatibility. * Fixed some file/directory permissions. -- J.H.M.
