The branch main has been updated by bapt: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=b75fb12b6827e306936b338f06ddb906fd383f42 commit b75fb12b6827e306936b338f06ddb906fd383f42 Author: Baptiste Daroussin <bapt@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2021-03-18 08:46:15 +0000 Commit: Baptiste Daroussin <bapt@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-03-18 09:29:43 +0000 terminfo: add more path to lookup for the database In preparation for the move of the database out of base, add one more path to lookup Now the default lookup path is 1. base 2. localbase 3. localbase special site for custom terminfo (for ports adding custom terminfo and avoid potential collision with the general db) 4. termcap The plan is to allow the terminfo-db to be installed by end users via a package for people willing to have the support for features from this database provides. And keep the fallback on termcap for people who don't want to hear about the terminfo db or how to configure the terminal if it uses by default the features proposed in the definitions of the terminfo db. the first look up path is a window open for a proposal made by glebius@ consisting on creating a tool where the user at install time will select the feature it want for a given terminal and generate its configurations based on that. I won't work on it, but it is now posssible and there is a path where to store those definitions --- lib/ncurses/ncurses/ncurses_cfg.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lib/ncurses/ncurses/ncurses_cfg.h b/lib/ncurses/ncurses/ncurses_cfg.h index 2217eabd3580..259d5c656af7 100644 --- a/lib/ncurses/ncurses/ncurses_cfg.h +++ b/lib/ncurses/ncurses/ncurses_cfg.h @@ -65,7 +65,7 @@ #ifdef __FreeBSD__ #define USE_SYSMOUSE 1 #endif -#define TERMINFO_DIRS "/usr/share/terminfo:/usr/local/share/site-terminfo" +#define TERMINFO_DIRS "/usr/share/terminfo:/usr/local/share/terminfo:/usr/local/share/site-terminfo" #define TERMINFO "/usr/share/terminfo" #define HAVE_BIG_CORE 1 #define TERMPATH "/etc/termcap:/usr/share/misc/termcap"
