    representation clauses when int=32 long=64 and endian=big, or at
    least on s390x (patch by Nicolas Boulenguez).
  + minor cleanup change to test/form_driver_w.c (patch by Gaute Hope).
- Add ncurses patch 20140125
  + remove unnecessary ifdef's in Ada95/gen/gen.c, which reportedly do

    new compiler warnings by gcc 4.8 in 20130824 (Debian #735753, patch
    by Nicolas Boulenguez).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 28 18:18:22 UTC 2014 - werner@suse.de

    --with-ospeed to not be a short.  By default, it is a short for
    termcap-compatibility (adapted from suggestion by Christian
    Weisgerber).
  + correct a typo in _nc_baudrate() (patch by Christian Weisgerber,
    cf: 20061230).
  + fix a few -Wlogical-op warnings.

    Solaris, because g++ errors with that definition (report by
    Jean-Pierre Flori, Sage #15268).
  + correct logic in infocmp's -i option which was intended to ignore
    strings which correspond to function-keys as candidates for piecing
    together initialization- or reset-strings.  The problem dates to
    1.9.7a, but was overlooked until changes in -Wlogical-op warnings for
    gcc 4.8 (report by David Binderman).
  + updated CF_GCC_WARNINGS to documented options for gcc 4.9.0, adding
    checks for -Wextra, -Wignored-qualifiers and -Wlogical-op
  + updated CF_GCC_WARNINGS to documented options for gcc 4.9.0, moving

    in cross-compiling.
  + separate the rpath usage for c++ library from demo program
    (Redhat #911540)

    of curses-related libraries, to help with linking with pdcurses in
    mingw environment.
  + if the --with-terminfo-dirs configure option is not used, there is
    no corresponding compiled-in value for that.  Fill in "no default
    value" for that part of the manpage substitution.
- Add ncurses patch 20130216
  + modify test/testcurs.c to work with mouse for ncurses as it does for
    pdcurses.

    check if the call to wgetnstr() returned an error.  This can happen
    when both nocbreak() and nodelay() are set, for instance (report by
    Nils Christopher Brause) (cf: 960418).
  + fixes for issues found by Coverity:
    + add a check for valid position in ClearToEOS()

  + amend changes made to buffering in 20120825 so that the low-level
    putp() call uses stdout rather than ncurses' internal buffering.
    The putp_sp() call does the same, for consistency (Redhat #892674).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20130105
  + add "-s" option to test/view.c to allow it to start in single-step
    mode, reducing size of trace files when it is used for debugging
    MinGW changes.
  + revert part of 20121222 change to tinfo_driver.c
  + add experimental logic in win_driver.c to improve optimization of
    screen updates.  This does not yet work with double-width characters,

    cf: 20011208).
  + improve 20021221 workaround for broken acs, handling a case where
    that ACS_xxx character is not in the acsc string but there is a known

  * tack.c: ensure that $TERM is set and is not too large
  * edit.c: build-fix for g++
  * color.c:
    corrected check for ncv (no_color_video), which did not handle
    the case when all video attributes should work.

  + corrected 'op' for bterm (report by Samuel Thibault) -TD
  + modify test/background.c to demonstrate a background character
    holding a colored ACS_HLINE.  The behavior differs from SVr4 due to
    the thick- and double-line extension (cf: 20091003).
  + modify handling of acs characters in PutAttrChar to avoid mapping an
    unmapped character to a space with A_ALTCHARSET set.

  + add ansi+enq to vt220-vt520 -TD
  + fix a compiler warning in example in ncurses-intro.doc (Paul Waring).
  + added paragraph in keyname manpage telling how extended capabilities
    are interpreted as key definitions.
  + modify tic's check of conflicting key definitions to include extended
    capability strings in addition to the existing check on predefined
    keys.

    as building-blocks -TD
  + add dec+sl building block, as example -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120414
  + add consistency check in tic for screen's "XT" capability.
  + add section in terminfo.src summarizing the user-defined capabilities
    used in that file -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120407
  + fix an inconsistency between tic/infocmp "-x" option; tic omits all
    non-standard capabilities, while infocmp was ignoring only the user
    definable capabilities.
  + improve special case in tic parsing of description to allow it to be
    followed by terminfo capabilities.  Previously the description had to
    be the last field on an input line to allow tic to distinguish
    between termcap and terminfo format while still allowing commas to be
    embedded in the description.
  + correct variable name in gen_edit.sh which broke configurability of
    the --with-xterm-kbs option.
  + revert 2011-07-16 change to "linux" alias, return to "linux2.2" -TD
  + further amend 20110910 change, providing for configure-script
    override of the "linux" terminfo entry to install and changing the
    default for that to "linux2.2" (Debian #665959).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120331
  + update Ada95/configure to use CF_DISABLE_ECHO (cf: 20120317).
  + correct order of use-clauses in st-256color -TD
  + modify configure script to look for gnatgcc if the Ada95 binding
    is built, in preference to the default gcc/cc (suggested by
    Nicolas Boulenguez).
  + modify configure script to ensure that the same -On option used for
    the C compiler in CFLAGS is used for ADAFLAGS rather than simply
    using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez)
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120324
  + amend an old fix so that next_char() exits properly for empty files,
    e.g., from reading /dev/null (cf: 20080804).
  + modify tic so that it can read from the standard input, or from
    a character device.  Because tic uses seek's, this requires writing
    the data to a temporary file first (prompted by remark by Sven
    Joachim) (cf: 20000923).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120317
  + correct a check made in lib_napms.c, so that terminfo applications
    can again use napms() (cf: 20110604).
  + add a note in tic.h regarding required casts for ABSENT_BOOLEAN
    (cf: 20040327).
  + correct scripting for --disable-echo option in test/configure.
  + amend check for missing c++ compiler to work when no error is
    reported, and no variables set (cf: 20021206).
  + add/use configure macro CF_DISABLE_ECHO.

  + add mach-gnu (Debian #614316, patch by Samuel Thibault)
  + add mach-gnu-color, tweaks to mach-gnu terminfo -TD
  + make sgr for sun-color agree with smso -TD
  + make sgr for prism9 agree with other caps -TD

    consistent with misc/Makefile.in, i.., using ${datadir}/tabset
    (Debian #653435, patch by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120121
 + add --with-lib-prefix option to allow configuring for old/new flavors
   of OS/2 EMX.
 + modify check for gnat version to allow for year, as used in FreeBSD
   port.
 + modify check_existence() in db_iterator.c to simply check if the
   path is a directory or file, according to the need.  Checking for
   directory size also gives no usable result with OS/2 (cf: 20120107).
 + support OS/2 kLIBC (patch by KO Myung-Han).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 16 16:36:44 UTC 2012 - werner@suse.de

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120114
 * several improvements to test/movewindow.c (prompted by discussion on
   Linux Mint forum):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120107
 * various improvments for MinGW (Juergen Pfeifer):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111231
 * modify toe's report when -a and -s options are combined, to add
   a column showing which entries belong to a given database.
 * add -s option to toe, to sort its output.
 * modify progs/toe.c, simplifying use of db-iterator results to use
   caching improvements from 20111001 and 20111126.
 * correct generation of pc-files when ticlib or termlib options are
   given to rename the corresponding tic- or tinfo-libraries (report
   by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111224
 * document a portability issue with tput, i.e., that scripts which work
   with ncurses may fail in other implementations that do no parameter
   analysis.
 * add putty-sco entry -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111217
 * review/fix places in manpages where --program-prefix configure option
   was not being used.
 * add -D option to infocmp, to show the database locations that it
   could use.
 * fix build for the special case where term-driver, ticlib and termlib
   are all enabled.  The terminal driver depends on a few features in
   the base ncurses library, so tic's dependencies include both ncurses
   and termlib.
 * fix build work for term-driver when --enable-wgetch-events option is
   enabled.
 * use <stdint.h> types to fix some questionable casts to void*.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111210
 * modify configure script to check if thread library provides
   pthread_mutexattr_settype(), e.g., not provided by Solaris 2.6
 * modify configure script to suppress check to define _XOPEN_SOURCE
   for IRIX64, since its header files have a conflict versus
   _SGI_SOURCE.
 * modify configure script to add ".pc" files for tic- and
   tinfo-libraries, which were omitted in recent change (cf: 20111126).
 * fix inconsistent checks on $PKG_CONFIG variable in configure script.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 20 11:05:51 UTC 2011 - coolo@suse.com

- remove call to suse_update_config (very old work around)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec  5 13:33:46 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111203 
 * modify configure-check for etip.h dependencies, supplying a temporary
   copy of ncurses_dll.h since it is a generated file (prompted by
   Debian #646977).
 * modify CF_CPP_PARAM_INIT "main" function to work with current C++.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 28 10:23:53 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111126
 * correct database iterator's check for duplicate entries
   (cf: 20111001).
 * modify database iterator to ignore $TERMCAP when it is not an
   absolute pathname.
 * add -D option to tic, to show the database locations that it could
   use.
 * improve description of database locations in tic manpage.
 * modify the configure script to generate a list of the ".pc" files to
   generate, rather than deriving the list from the libraries which have
   been built (patch by Mike Frysinger).
 * use AC_CHECK_TOOLS in preference to AC_PATH_PROGS when searching for
   ncurses*-config, e.g., in Ada95/configure and test/configure (adapted
   from patch by Mike Frysinger).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 24 13:32:02 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Avoid linker script libterminfo.so as bash configure can not
  handle this

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 24 12:17:08 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Use linker scripts to amke sure that libtinfo will be found
  even if -ltinfo is missed on the linker command line

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 22 12:03:47 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111119
 * remove obsolete/conflicting fallback definition for _POSIX_SOURCE
   from curses.priv.h, fixing a regression with IRIX64 and Tru64
   (cf: 20110416)
 * modify _nc_tic_dir() to ensure that its return-value is nonnull,
   i.e., the database iterator was not initialized.  This case is needed
   to when tic is translating to termcap, rather than loading the
   database (cf:  20111001).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 18 12:00:10 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Update to tack 1.07-20110626
- Enlarge hash size for run time linker
- Enforce bind references to global function symbols to the
  definition within libncurses and libtinfo

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 17 13:16:17 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111112
 * add pccon entries for OpenBSD console (Alexei Malinin).
 * build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 with gcc 4.2.1, setting _XOPEN_SOURCE to
   600 to work around inconsistent ifdef'ing of wcstof between C and
   C++ header files.
 * modify capconvert script to accept more than exact match on "xterm",
   e.g., the "xterm-*" variants, to exclude from the conversion (patch
   by Robert Millan).
 * fix a typo misc/Makefile.in, used in uninstalling pc-files.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111030
 * modify make_db_path() to allow creating "terminfo.db" in the same
   directory as an existing "terminfo" directory.  This fixes a case
   where switching between hashed/filesystem databases would cause the
   new hashed database to be installed in the next best location -
   root's home directory.
 * add variable cf_cv_prog_gnat_correct to those passed to
   config.status, fixing a problem with Ada95 builds (cf: 20111022).
 * change feature test from _XPG5 to _XOPEN_SOURCE in two places, to
   accommodate broken implementations for _XPG6.
 * eliminate usage of NULL symbol from etip.h, to reduce header
   interdependencies.
 * add configure check to decide when to add _XOPEN_SOURCE define to
   compiler options, i.e., for Solaris 10 and later (cf: 20100403).
   This is a workaround for gcc 4.6, which fails to build the c++
   binding if that symbol is defined by the application, due to
   incorrectly combining the corresponding feature test macros
   (report by Peter Kruse).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111022
 * correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
   events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
   (cf: 20110917).
 * fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
   gnat does not work.
 * cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
   internal functions of libncurses.  The external interface of courses
   uses bool, which still produces these warnings.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111015
 * improve description of --disable-tic-depends option to make it
   clear that it may be useful whether or not the --with-termlib
   option is also given (report by Sven Joachim).
 * amend termcap equivalent for set_pglen_inch to use the X/Open
   "YI" rather than the obsolete Solaris 2.5 "sL" (cf: 990109).
 * improve manpage for tgetent differences from termcap library.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111008
 * moved static data from db_iterator.c to lib_data.c
 * modify db_iterator.c for memory-leak checking, fix one leak.
 * modify misc/gen-pkgconfig.in to use Requires.private for the parts
   of ncurses rather than Requires, as well as Libs.private for the
   other library dependencies (prompted by Debian #644728).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111001
 * modify tic "-K" option to only set the strict-flag rather than force
   source-output.  That allows the same flag to control the parser for
   input and output of termcap source.
 * modify _nc_getent() to ignore backslash at the end of a comment line,
   making it consistent with ncurses' parser.
 * restore a special-case check for directory needed to make termcap
   text files load as if they were databases (cf: 20110924).
 * modify tic's resolution/collision checking to attempt to remove the
   conflicting alias from the second entry in the pair, which is
   normally following in the source file.  Also improved the warning
   message to make it simpler to see which alias is the problem.
 * improve performance of the database iterator by caching search-list.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110925
 * add a missing "else" in changes to _nc_read_tic_entry().

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110924
 * modify _nc_read_tic_entry() so that hashed-database is checked before
   filesystem.
 * updated CF_CURSES_LIBS check in test/configure script.
 * modify configure script and makefiles to split TIC_ARGS and
   TINFO_ARGS into pieces corresponding to LDFLAGS and LIBS variables,
   to help separate searches for tic- and tinfo-libraries (patch by Nick
   Alcock aka "Nix").
 * build-fix for lib_mouse.c changes (ch: 20110917).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110917
 * fix compiler warning for clang 2.9
 * improve merging of mouse events (integrated patch by Damien
   Guibouret).
 * correct mask-check used in lib_mouse for wheel mouse buttons 4/5
   (patch by Damien Guibouret).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110910
 * modify misc/gen_edit.sh to select a "linux" entry which works with
   the current kernel rather than assuming it is always "linux3.0"
   (cf: 20110716).
 * revert a change to getmouse() which had the undesirable side-effect
   of suppressing button-release events (report by Damien Guibouret,
   cf: 20100102).
 * add xterm+kbs fragment from xterm #272 -TD
 * add configure option --with-pkg-config-libdir to provide control over
   the actual directory into which pc-files are installed, do not use
   the pkg-config environment variables (discussion with Frederic L W
   Meunier).
 * add link to mailing-list archive in announce.html.in, as done in
   FAQ (prompted by question by Andrius Bentkus).
 * improve manpage install by adjusting the "#include" examples to
   show the ncurses-subdirectory used when --disable-overwrite option
   is used.
 * install an alias for "curses" to the ncurses manpage, tied to the
   --with-curses-h configure option (suggested by Reuben Thomas).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110903
 * propagate error-returns from wresize, i.e., the internal
   increase_size and decrease_size functions through resize_term (report
   by Tim van der Molen, cf:  20020713).
 * fix typo in tset manpage (patch by Sven Joachim).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110820
 * add a check to ensure that termcap files which might have "^?" do
   not use the terminfo interpretation as "\177".
 * minor cleanup of X-terminal emulator section of terminfo.src -TD
 * add terminator entry -TD
 * add simpleterm entry -TD
 * improve wattr_get macros by ensuring that if the window pointer is
   null, then the attribute and color values returned will be zero
   (cf: 20110528).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110813
 * add substitution for $RPATH_LIST to misc/ncurses-config.in
 * improve performance of tic with hashed-database by caching the
   database connection, using atexit() to cleanup.
 * modify treatment of 2-character aliases at the beginning of termcap
   entries so they are not counted in use-resolution, since these are
   guaranteed to be unique.  Also ignore these aliases when reporting
   the primary name of the entry (cf: 20040501)
 * double-check gn (generic) flag in terminal descriptions to
   accommodate old/buggy termcap databases which misused that feature.
 * minor fixes to _nc_tgetent(), ensure buffer is initialized even on
   error-return.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110807
 * improve rpath fix from 20110730 by ensuring that the new $RPATH_LIST
   variable is defined in the makefiles which use it.
 * build-fix for DragonFlyBSD's pkgsrc in test/configure script.
 * build-fixes for NetBSD 5.1 with termcap support enabled.
 * corrected k9 in dg460-ansi, add other features based on manuals -TD
 * improve trimming of whitespace at the end of terminfo/termcap output
   from tic/infocmp.
 * when writing termcap source, ensure that colons in the description
   field are translated to a non-delimiter, i.e., "=".
 * add "-0" option to tic/infocmp, to make the termcap/terminfo source
   use a single line.
 * add a null-pointer check when handling the $CC variable.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110730
 * modify configure script and makefiles in c++ and progs to allow the
   directory used for rpath option to be overridden, e.g., to work
   around updates to the variables used by tic during an install.
 * add -K option to tic/infocmp, to provide stricter BSD-compatibility
   for termcap output.
 * add _nc_strict_bsd variable in tic library which controls the
   "strict" BSD termcap compatibility from 20110723, plus these
   features:
   * allow escapes such as "\8" and "\9" when reading termcap
   * disallow "\a", "\e", "\l", "\s" and "\:" escapes when reading
     termcap files, passing through "a", "e", etc.
   * expand "\:" as "\072" on output.
 * modify _nc_get_token() to reset the token's string value in case
   there is a string-typed token lacking the "=" marker.
 * fix a few memory leaks in _nc_tgetent.
 * fix a few places where reading from a termcap file could refer to
   freed memory.
 * add an overflow check when converting terminfo/termcap numeric
   values, since terminfo stores those in a short, and they must be
   positive.
 * correct internal variables used for translating to termcap "%>"
   feature, and translating from termcap %B to terminfo, needed by
   tctest (cf: 19991211).
 * amend a minor fix to acsc when loading a termcap file to separate it
   from warnings needed for tic (cf: 20040710)
 * modify logic in _nc_read_entry() and _nc_read_tic_entry() to allow
   a termcap file to be handled via TERMINFO_DIRS.
 * modify _nc_infotocap() to include non-mandatory padding when
   translating to termcap.
 * modify _nc_read_termcap_entry(), passing a flag in the case where
   getcap is used, to reduce interactive warning messages.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110723
 * add a check in start_color() to limit color-pairs to 256 when
   extended colors are not supported (patch by David Benjamin).
 * modify setcchar to omit no-longer-needed OR'ing of color pair in
   the SetAttr() macro (patch by David Benjamin).
 * add kich1 to sun terminfo entry (Yuri Pankov)
 * use bold rather than reverse for smso in sun-color terminfo entry
   (Yuri Pankov).
 * improve generation of termcap using tic/infocmp -C option, e.g.,
   to correspond with 4.2BSD (prompted by discussion with Yuri Pankov
   regarding Schilling's test program):
   * translate %02 and %03 to %2 and %3 respectively.
   * suppress string capabilities which use %s, not supported by tgoto
   * use \040 rather than \s
   * expand null characters as \200 rather than \0
 * modify configure script to support shared libraries for DragonFlyBSD.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110716
 * replace an assert() in _nc_Free_Argument() with a regular null
   pointer check (report/analysis by Franjo Ivancic).
 * modify configure --enable-pc-files option to take into account the
   PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable (report by Frederic L W Meunier).

   7.1 with both gcc 4.2.4 and cc.
 * modify configure checks for AIX to include release 7.x
 * add loader flags/libraries to libtool options so that dynamic loading
   works properly, adapted from ncurses-5.7-ldflags-with-libtool.patch
   at gentoo prefix repository (patch by Michael Haubenwallner).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110626
 * move include of nc_termios.h out of term_entry.h, since the latter
   is installed, e.g., for tack while the former is not (report by
   Sven Joachim).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110625
 * improve cleanup() function in lib_tstp.c, using _exit() rather than
   exit() and checking for SIGTERM rather than SIGQUIT (prompted by
   comments forwarded by Nicholas Marriott).
 * reduce name pollution from term.h, moving fallback #define's for
   tcgetattr(), etc., to new private header nc_termios.h (report by
   Sergio NNX).
 * two minor fixes for tracing (patch by Vassili Courzakis).

   * use S_ISREG and S_ISDIR consistently, with fallback definitions.
 * add a few more checks based on ncurses/link_test.
 * modify MKlib_gen.sh to handle sp-funcs renaming of NCURSES_OUTC type.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110528
 * add case to CF_SHARED_OPTS for Interix (patch by Markus Duft).
 * used ncurses/link_test to check for behavior when the terminal has
   not been initialized and when an application passes null pointers
   to the library.  Added checks to cover this (prompted by Redhat
   #707344).
 * modify MKlib_gen.sh to make its main() function call each function
   with zero parameters, to help find inconsistent checking for null
   pointers, etc.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110521
 * fix warnings from clang 2.7 "--analyze"

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110514
 * compiler-warning fixes in panel and progs.
 * modify CF_PKG_CONFIG macro, from changes to tin -TD
 * modify CF_CURSES_FUNCS configure macro, used in test directory
   configure script:
   * work around (non-optimizer) bug in gcc 4.2.1 which caused
     test-expression to be omitted from executable.
   * force the linker to see a link-time expression of a symbol, to
     help work around weak-symbol issues.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110507
 * update discussion of MKfallback.sh script in INSTALL; normally the
   script is used automatically via the configured makefiles.  However
   there are still occasions when it might be used directly by packagers
   (report by Gunter Schaffler).
 * modify misc/ncurses-config.in to omit the "-L" option from the
   "--libs" output if the library directory is /usr/lib.
 * change order of tests for curses.h versus ncurses.h headers in the
   configure scripts for Ada95 and test-directories, to look for
   ncurses.h, from fixes to tin -TD
 * modify ncurses/tinfo/access.c to account for Tandem's root uid
   (report by Joachim Schmitz).

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110430
 * modify rules in Ada95/src/Makefile.in to ensure that the PIC option
   is not used when building a static library (report by Nicolas
   Boulenguez):
 * Ada95 build-fix for big-endian architectures such as sparc.  This
   undoes one of the fixes from 20110319, which added an "Unused" member
   to representation clauses, replacing that with pragmas to suppress
   warnings about unused bits (patch by Nicolas Boulenguez):

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110423
 * add check in test/configure for use_window, use_screen.
 * add configure-checks for getopt's variables, which may be declared
   as different types on some Unix systems.
 * add check in test/configure for some legacy curses types of the
   function pointer passed to tputs().
 * modify init_pair() to accept -1's for color value after
   assume_default_colors() has been called (Debian #337905).

   assume_default_colors() and use_default_colors().

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110416
 * modify configure script/source-code to only define _POSIX_SOURCE if
   the checks for sigaction and/or termios fail, and if _POSIX_C_SOURCE
   and _XOPEN_SOURCE are undefined (report by Valentin Ochs).
 * update config.guess, config.sub

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110409
 * fixes to build c++ binding with clang 3.0 (patch by Alexander
   Kolesen).
 * add check for unctrl.h in test/configure, to work around breakage in
   some ncurses packages.
 * add "--disable-widec" option to test/configure script.
 * add "--with-curses-colr" and "--with-curses-5lib" options to the
   test/configure script to address testing with very old machines.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 17 13:00:34 UTC 2011 - werner@suse.de

- Update to ncurses 5.9
 * various build-fixes for the rpm/dpkg scripts.
 * add "--enable-rpath-link" option to Ada95/configure, to allow
   packages to suppress the rpath feature which is normally used for
   the in-tree build of sample programs.
 * corrected definition of libdir variable in Ada95/src/Makefile.in,

   with write_file().
 * modify misc/run_tic.in to create parent directory, in case this is
   a new install of hashed database.
 * add cons25-debian entry (patch by Brian M Carlson, Debian #607662).

   support VT100 SI/SO when processing UTF-8 encoding -TD
 * improve the NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS feature by adding a check for an
   extended terminfo capability U8 (prompted by mailing list
   discussion).

   version which works with termcap.
 * fix typo in rmso for tek4106 entry -Goran Weinholt
 * repurpose "gnome" terminfo entries as "vte", retaining "gnome" items
   for compatibility, but generally deprecating those since the VTE

    requires save/restore of out-character function from _nc_prescreen
    rather than the SCREEN structure (report by Charles Wilson).
  * limit hashing for termcap-names to 2-characters (Ubuntu #481740).
  * fix a regression in _nc_ripoffline which made test/ncurses.c not show
    soft-keys, broken in 20090927 merging.
  * update nsterm entries (patch by Benjamin C W Sittler, prompted by
    discussion with Fabian Groffen in GenToo #206201).
  * add test/xterm-256color.dat
  * modify _nc_wgetch() to check for a -1 in the fifo, e.g., after a
    SIGWINCH, and discard that value, to avoid confusing application
    (patch by Eygene Ryabinkin, FreeBSD bin/136223).

    in non-blocking mode (patch by Clemens Ladisch).
  * fix configure script option --with-database, which was coded as an
    enable-type switch.
  * modify lib_addch.c to compensate for removal of wide-character test
    from unctrl() in 20090704 (Debian #539735).
  * modify _nc_find_type_entry() to use hashing.
  * modify length returned by getcchar() to count the trailing null

  * add environment variable NCURSES_GPM_TERMS to allow override to use
    GPM on terminals other than "linux", etc.

    "linux", since Gpm_Open() no longer limits its assertion to terminals
    that it might handle, e.g., within "screen" in xterm.
  * fix bug in mouse code for GPM from 20080920 changes (reported in
    Debian #500103, also Miroslav Lichvar).

  * add configure-check for availability of weak symbols.
  * modify linkage with pthread library to use weak symbols so that
    applications not linked to that library will not use the mutexes,
    etc.  This relies on gcc, and may be platform-specific (patch by Dr Werner Fink).
  * add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
    using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).
  * document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted
    by comments by Samuel Thibault).

  * use NCURSES_MOUSE_MASK() in definition of BUTTON_RELEASE(), etc., to
    make those work properly with the "--enable-ext-mouse" configuration
    (cf: 20050205).
  * improve mlterm and mlterm+pcfkeys terminfo entries -TD
  * add null-pointer checks for cur_term in baudrate() and
    def_shell_mode(), def_prog_mode()
  * fix some memory leaks in delscreen() and wide acs.
  * modify test/ditto.c to illustrate multi-threaded use_screen().
  * finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the
    window's actual screen when calling wrefresh() and wgetnstr().  That
    allows wgetch() to get used concurrently in different threads with
    some minor restrictions, e.g., the application should not delete a
    window which is being used in a wgetch().
  * simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
  * modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window
    parameter rather than relying on SP; some dependent functions still
    use SP internally.
  * factor out most use of SP in lib_mouse.c, using parameter.
  * modify _nc_keypad() to make it switch temporarily as needed to the
    screen which must be updated.
  * wrap cur_term variable to help make _nc_keymap() thread-safe, and
    always set the screen's copy of this variable in set_curterm().
  * restore curs_set() state after endwin()/refresh() (report/patch
    Miroslav Lichvar)
  * corrected manpage description of setcchar()
  * fix for adding a non-spacing character at the beginning of a line
  * modify screen.* terminfo entries using new screen+fkeys to fix

  * simplify some loops with macros each_screen(), each_window() and
    each_ripoff().
  * fix typo in form.3x
  * add screen.rxvt terminfo entry -TD

    being lost when that is read back in unformatted strings.
  * add locks for copywin(), dupwin(), overlap(), overlay() on their
    window parameters.
  * add locks for initscr() and newterm() on updates to the SCREEN
    pointer.
  * finish table in curs_thread.3x manpage.
