            Bug ID: 223437
           Summary: devel/ncurses: Latest version breaks
                    eat_newline_glitch with irc/weechat (and possibly
                    others)
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

Since updating ncurses to 6.0.0s20171007 from 6.0_3, weechat configured with
weechat.look.eat_newline_glitch no longer works.

weechat.look.eat_newline_glitch is used to allow a terminal to detect long
(longer than terminal width) URLs and create hyperlinks. Prior to ncurses
6.0.0s20171007, this functionality worked fine. When upgrading to 6.0_3, it=
 no
longer works. Downgrading to 6.0_3 resolves the issue.

I'm not sure if this is a FreeBSD/ncurses 6.0.0s20171007 specific issue, or
whether it affects other systems. However, a Linux machine running 6.0+2016=
1126
works just fine.
