I'll try to get opinions about this. Since we're in the middle of packages migration, maybe it's an interesting opportunity to try to use ncursesw and drop ncurses.
ncursesw is ncurses + Unicode (UTF8) support Both libraries built out of the same source base, and they're just 2 build variants. >From what I can see, Midnight Commander may have some problems building with libncursesw, but I think those could be resolved. python + python3 pick up libncursesw if they find it, but they could be configured to take libncurses no idea about impact on other libs, hence this RFC in the openwrt/packages folder there are only these libs that reference libncurses: - deve/gdb - utils/util-linux - network/utils/iftop - network/services/samba36 libncursesw is slightly fatter (360 kb) than libncurses (295 kb) Having both installed on a device seems redundant, even though together the bloat is not too big. So, then, what would be some opinions/prefs ? Thanks Alex
