Are there any pitfalls foreseen with replacing LIBCURSES with = LIBNCURSES and removing LIBCURSES from bsd.libnames.mk? While investigating "make checkdpadd=94 errors for PR 192762 ( = https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D192762 ), I noticed = that some of the Makefiles referenced LIBCURSES* while the bulk majority = referenced LIBNCURSES*. libcurses* is symlinked to libncurses* though: # ls -l /usr/lib/libcurses* lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 Aug 16 19:08 /usr/lib/libcurses.a -> = libncurses.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 13 Aug 16 19:08 /usr/lib/libcurses.so -> = libncurses.so lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 13 Aug 16 19:08 /usr/lib/libcursesw.a -> = libncursesw.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 14 Aug 16 19:08 /usr/lib/libcursesw.so -> = libncursesw.so I don=92t have a full history for why there=92s a discrepancy = between the two because it predates me (I assume it has to deal with = moving from BSD curses to ncurses though...), but LIBCURSES has been = around for quite a while ( = http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/share/mk/bsd.prog.mk?annotate=3D1639&p= athrev=3D18052 ).
