https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D246029 Bug ID: 246029 Summary: sysutils/screen: the screen.xterm-256color terminal type is not known to FreeBSD Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: cy@FreeBSD.org Reporter: vas@sibptus.ru Flags: maintainer-feedback?(cy@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: cy@FreeBSD.org The recent versions of screen use the "screen.xterm-256color" terminal type= by default inside screen's windows. This terminal type is not known to FreeBSD= (as recent as 12.1) which causes messages like this: csh: using dumb terminal settings. inside screen's windows, and failure of screen-oriented software (text edit= ors etc) to work properly. Workaround: add something like "screen.xterm-256color:tc=3Dscreen-256color"= to /usr/share/misc/termcap and recompile it with cap_mkdb. I really don't know if this should be considered a bug in sysutils/screen o= r a deficiency in FreeBSD's termcap in the base system. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
