The following reply was made to PR misc/30778; it has been noted by GNATS.

So we've got two unrelated errors then, one was mismatching as/ae in termcap (which has been taken care of for the wyse terminals), and the other an ncurses hickup on escaped colons. > The bug is somewhere in contrib/ncurses/ncurses/tinfo. I'll see if I can spot it. Don't expect too much, though; the topic is new to me. Could the same error happen for the reading of other, similar databases, such as login.conf or printcap? They are built similarly, so I assume code sharing has happened. Greetings, Bernd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
