Description Nick Black 2020-06-16 16:21:00 UTC

Description of problem:

fbterm 1.7 doesn't install /usr/share/terminfo/f/fbterm

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.7 / 18.fc32

How reproducible:

Completely. Bug has been filed before (in 2009): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=542284

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install fbterm
2. export TERM=fbterm
3. Fail!

Actual results:

setupterm(3NCURSES) returns NULL due to a missing terminfo description.

Expected results:

The terminfo descriptor is found.

Additional info:

The terminfo file is installed by the Debian package of 1.7, and is installed by default when building from source (see terminfo/fbterm). I'm thinking it's probably just a missing entry in the specfile. I can provide a patch if necessary.

Could you provide a PR in https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/fbterm ?

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/fbterm/pull-request/1

share and enjoy. I'm planning on taking over this dead project from upstream. When I cut a release, I'll let y'all know, and perhaps you'll be interested in following the new source (I'm also happy to take the package over if you'd like).
