Package: ncurses-bin
Version: 5.6+20070714-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Hi,

Since I've upgraded ncurses-bin (and other ncurses packages) to the lastest
version, my whole system is broken.
Lots of init scripts are failing :
# invoke-rc.d networking restart
 * Reconfiguring network interfaces...       /usr/bin/tput: invalid option -- 2
usage: tput [-V] [-S] [-T term] capname
invoke-rc.d: initscript networking, action "restart" failed.
#

It seems that this bug is related to :
 - ncurses-bin: tput now fails at boot time since the last upgrade
 - lsb-base: calls tput
 - usplash: activate "fancy boot messages" in lsb-base.
Please note that if I remove usplash or if I downgrade ncurses, my system
works as usual.
