            Bug ID: 242613
           Summary: cdialog-1.3-20180621 displays ugly black bars
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org

Prior to 1.3-20180621 cdialog would fill unused space at the end of the
line with the background color.  However, starting with 1.3-20180621
it doesn't. Instead, it seems to fill with whatever the terminal's
background color was prior to starting dialog.

Steps to reproduce on FreeBSD current:
cat /etc/rc.conf | cdialog --programbox 23 76

With older versions of dialog the box's background is a consistent
color.  With 1.3-20180621, the trailing unused part of each
line is filled with (on my terminal at least) black.

Details here
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-ncurses/2019-02/msg00010.html

The problem is evident in FreeBSD's ports tree's version.

The latest upstream version of dialog 1.3.20191210 fixes this problem for m=
e.

Can someone update the version of devel/cdialog port?
