This is a log of changes that ncurses has gone through since Zeyd started
Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions;
it is not possible to add this information.
+20171230
+ + build-fix for ncurses-examples with Fedora27, adding check for
+ reset_color_pairs() -- not yet in Fedora's package.
+ + consistently add $CFLAGS to $MK_SHARED_LIB symbol in configure
+ script when the latter happens to use the C compiler rather than
+ directly using the loader (report by Jeffrey Walton).
+ + set ABI for upcoming 6.1 release in "*.map" files. While there are
+ some remaining internals to apply, no ABI-related changes are
+ anticipated.
+ + add configure --with-config-suffix option to work around filename
+ conflict with Redhat packages versus test-packages.
+
+20171223
+ + modify ncurses-examples to quiet const-warnings when building with
+ PDCurses.
+ + modify toe to not exit if unable to read a terminal description,
+ e.g., if there is a permission problem.
+ + minor fix for progs/toe.c, using _nc_free_termtype2.
+ + assign 0 to pointer in _nc_tgetent_leak() after freeing it. Also
+ avoid reusing pointer from previous successful call to tgetent
+ if the latest call is unsuccessful (patch by Michael Schroeder,
+ OpenSuSE #1070450).
+ + minor fix for test/tracemunch, initialize $awaiting variable.
+
20171216
+ repair template in test/package/ncurses-examples.spec (cf: 20171111).
+ improve tic's warning about the number of parameters tparm might use
