>Number: 3695 >Category: misc >Synopsis: compiled termcap.db not in distribution >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue May 27 02:10:02 PDT 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: M.Sapsed >Organization: University of Wales, Bangor, UK >Release: FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE i386 (and 2.1.7.1 at least) >Environment: Any machine >Description: After an install, the file /usr/share/misc/termcap.db is not created.
