Package: ncurses-bin
Version: 5.5-1.1
Severity: minor
With -v levels above 1, tic fails with a message as below:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ infocmp > term.tic
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ tic -v2 term.tic
"term.tic", line 2, 'xterm' tic: symbol lookup error: tic: undefined symbol:
_tracef
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$
With -v1, it works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ tic -v1 term.tic
"term.tic", line 2, 'xterm' "term.tic", line 2, 'xterm' "term.tic", line 2,
terminal 'xterm': non-curses applications may be confused by ich1 with smir/rmir

Preloading the shared library from the -dbg package, it works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/debug/libncurses.so.5.5 tic -v2
term.tic

Presumably I'm missing something because it seems a little obscure to require
the user to work how how to use LD_PRELOAD in order to use a potentially useful
option.
