I remember some time ago Jordan somehow left /usr/lib/terminfo/* and it was too long time to understand why his stuff not works, so we have one precendent at least that having >1 terminal database leads to big troubles. Please, put needed #ifdefs to NOT look to /usr/lib/terminfo, as I say only one terminal database must exists in the system, not TWO! If you want something from terminal database - better way is termcap file fixing than adding /usr/lib/terminfo stuff. Please do not commit without terminfo taking out. Don't forget to turn BSD-tputs on to have compatibility on libtermcap level. -- Andrey A.
