Another problem: ncurses-base-1.9.8a-1.deb should have a debian.preinst to kill the link etc/terminfo -> ../usr/lib/terminfo provided by base-0.93.6. Or it is intended that these fall into /usr/lib/terminfo?
And how to elegantly get rid of the huge /usr/lib/terminfo database w/o installing and purging? mfg Rolf Rossius
