Hello all, I seem to be running into an issue with my terminal not being recognized after updating to the latest terminfo (6.1-1.20190727). Setting TERM to anything other than 'xterm' results in loss of terminal control where I am unable to use backspace/delete/text editing commands. For example in tmux (with TERM set to 'tmux-256color') vim reports 'E558: Terminal entry not found in terminfo' and the output of infocmp shows 'infocmp: couldn't open terminfo file /usr/share/terminfo/74/tmux-256color' even through the file exists at that path with read access.
Is anyone else running into this issue? I can revert to the previous version of terminfo and everything will work again, but after this long I'm surprised nobody else has brought this issue up. Alternatively there may be some kind of permissions issue on my end getting obscured by an otherwise noninformative error message. Some additional information that may be of relevance: $ stat /usr/share/terminfo/74/tmux-256color File: /usr/share/terminfo/74/tmux-256color Size: 3225 Blocks: 4 IO Block: 65536 regular file Device: c6eca3b1h/3337397169d Inode: 1688849860292816 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: (197609/ jim) Gid: (197121/ None) Access: 2020-01-23 15:21:27.671826400 -0800 Modify: 2019-07-28 09:49:23.000000000 -0700 Change: 2020-01-23 11:30:08.971083200 -0800 Birth: 2020-01-23 11:30:08.970087200 -0800 $ md5sum /usr/share/terminfo/74/tmux-256color 2d86e10db44e7d5032a13f9c229e0887 */usr/share/terminfo/74/tmux-256color -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
