Description Bill Crawford 2001-01-10 13:16:05 UTC
[bill@fraser bill]$ infotocap /usr/share/terminfo/x/xterm
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-01-15 22:04:17 UTC
infotocap takes terminfo *source* input, not terminfo precompiled stuff.


Comment 2 Bill Crawford 2001-01-15 22:48:54 UTC
I was slightly misled by this in the man page, I think:

FILES
       /usr/share/terminfo Compiled terminal description database.

Still, I'm surprised it segfaulted.
