Hey Benny!
BP> anyone have a patch or sulution to it ?
Upgrade to ncurses-6.5. I just tried it and it yeilds;
:read ldd fconfig
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007f41eb1c4000)
libncursesw.so.6 => /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007f41eb074000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f41eae92000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f41eb1c6000)
:read ldd fmail
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fae7bc5b000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fae7b9f0000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fae7bc5d000)
:read ldd ftools
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fcc3e0d2000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fcc3de99000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fcc3e0d4000)
From this angle it looks like only fconfig requires ncurses and in this nech of the woods that means ncurses-6.5.
Life is good,
Maurice
