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.

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.
