that need basic termlib functionality, i.e. tgetent(), tgoto(),
tputs(), etc. Together with the termlib.builtin.mk file, they will
use either a built-in termcap library, a built-in X/Open "enhanced"
curses library, or ncurses to provide these functions.
+ Add BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.* definitions to the various curses buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that give the "base" library name of the curses
library, e.g. curses, ncurses, etc. These are used by the termlib
files to set BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.termlib.
used by packages that need curses. From curses.buildlink3.mk:
CURSES_DEFAULT
This value represents the type of curses we wish to use on the
system. Setting this to "curses" means that the system curses
implementation is fine.
Possible: curses, ncurses, pdcurses
+ Move all code to detect a built-in version of curses into a
curses.builtin.mk file.
+ Add code to {n,pd}curses/buildlink3.mk so make the headers and
libraries usable as <curses.h> and -lcurses if _PKG_USE_CURSES is
defined. _PKG_USE_CURSES is only defined by curses.buildlink3.mk.
+ Improve the detection of native ncurses in ncurses/builtin.mk and
allow headers and libraries to be usable as <ncurses.h> and -lncurses.
PDCurses is a public domain curses library that implements most of
the functions available in X/Open and System V R4 curses. This X11
port allows for recompiling programs using text-mode curses to produce
native X11 applications.
This package was originally created by <bjs> in pkgsrc-wip and with
several modifications by me to update to the latest version of PDCurses
and to be more buildlink-correct.
