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.

- Add ncurses patch 20171230
  + build-fix for ncurses-examples with Fedora27, adding check for
    reset_color_pairs() -- not yet in Fedora's package.
  + consistently add $CFLAGS to $MK_SHARED_LIB symbol in configure
    script when the latter happens to use the C compiler rather than
    directly using the loader (report by Jeffrey Walton).
  + set ABI for upcoming 6.1 release in "*.map" files.  While there are
    some remaining internals to apply, no ABI-related changes are
    anticipated.
  + add configure --with-config-suffix option to work around filename
    conflict with Redhat packages versus test-packages.
- Add ncurses patch 20171223
  + modify ncurses-examples to quiet const-warnings when building with
    PDCurses.
  + modify toe to not exit if unable to read a terminal description,
    e.g., if there is a permission problem.
  + minor fix for progs/toe.c, using _nc_free_termtype2.
  + assign 0 to pointer in _nc_tgetent_leak() after freeing it. Also
    avoid reusing pointer from previous successful call to tgetent
    if the latest call is unsuccessful (patch by Michael Schroeder,
    OpenSuSE #1070450).
  + minor fix for test/tracemunch, initialize $awaiting variable.

- Disable memory leak checking (boo#1070450) 

- Add ncurses patch 20171216
  + repair template in test/package/ncurses-examples.spec (cf: 20171111).
  + improve tic's warning about the number of parameters tparm might use
    for u1-u9 by making a special case for u6.
  + improve curs_attr.3x discussion of color pairs.

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.
