New curses Libraries

Edit Package ncurses

As soon as a text application needs to directly control its output to
the screen (if it wants to place the cursor at location (x,y) then
write text), ncurses is used. The panel and the forms libraries are
included in this package. These new libraries support color, special
characters, and panels.

Dominique Leuenberger's avatar Dominique Leuenberger (dimstar_suse) accepted request 527053 from Dr. Werner Fink's avatar Dr. Werner Fink (WernerFink) (revision 135)
- Add ncurses patch +20170916
 + minor fix to test/filter.c to avoid clearing the command in one case.
 + modify filter() to discard clr_eos if back_color_erase is set.

- Do not remove ticw.pc as well as tinfow.pc for wide character
  ncurses ABI 6 (boo#1056171)

- Add ncurses patch 20170827
  + fix a bug in repeat_char logic (cf: 20170729, report by Chris Clayton).
- Add ncurses patch 20170902
  + amend change for endwin-state for better consistency with the older
    logic (report/patch by Jeb Rosen, cf: 20170722).
  + modify check in fmt_entry() to handle a cancelled reset string
    (Debian #873746).  Make similar fixes in other parts of dump_entry.c
    and tput.c
- Add ncurses patch 20170909
  + improve wide-character implementation of myADDNSTR() in frm_driver.c,
    which was inconsistent with the normal implementation.
  + save/restore cursor position in Undo_Justification(), matching
    behavior of Buffer_To_Window() (report by Leon Winter).
  + modify test/knight to provide the "slow" solution for small screens
    using "R", noting that Warnsdorf's method is easily done with "a".
  + modify several test-programs which call use_default_colors() to
    consistently do this only if "-d" option is given.
  + additional changes to test with non-standard variants of curses:
    + modify a loop limit in firework.c to work around absense of limit
      checks in some libraries.
    + fill the last row of a window with "?" in firstlast if waddch does
      not return ERR on the lower-right corner.
  + add checks in test/configure for some functions not in 4.3BSD curses.

Is it possible to retrigger build and republish all the packages that claim to buildrequire ncurses-devel ? PCRE posix is still infecting a sizeable amount of packages and those will likely crash under some circumstances as they expect regcomp from glibc and not from pcre.
