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.
+20151107
+ + modify tset's assignment to TERM in its output to reflect the name by
+ which the terminal description is found, rather than the primary
+ name. That was an unnecessary part from the initial conversion of
+ tset from termcap to terminfo. The termcap program in 4.3BSD did
+ this to avoid using the short 2-character name (report by Rich
+ Burridge).
+ + minor fix to configure script to ensure that rules for resulting.map
+ are only generated when needed (cf: 20151101).
+ + modify configure script to handle the case where tic-library is
+ renamed, but the --with-debug option is used by itself without
+ normal or shared libraries (prompted by comment in Debian #803482).
+
+20151101
+ + amend change for pkg-config which allows build of pc-files when no
+ valid pkg-config library directory was configured to suppress the
+ actual install if it is not overridden to a valid directory at
+ install time (cf: 20150822).
+ + modify editing script which generates resulting.map to work with the
+ clang configuration on recent FreeBSD, which gives an error on an
+ empty "local" section.
+ + fix a spurious "(Part)" message in test/ncurses.c b/B tests due
+ to incorrect attribute-masking.
+
+20151024
+ + modify MKexpanded.c to update the expansion of a temporary filename
+ to "expanded.c", for use in trace statements.
+ + modify layout of b/B tests in test/ncurses.c to allow for additional
+ annotation on the right margin; some terminals with partial support
+ did not display well.
+ + fix typo in curs_attr.3x (patch by Sven Joachim).
+ + fix typo in INSTALL (patch by Tomas Cech).
+ + improve configure check for setting WILDCARD_SYMS variable; on ppc64
+ the variable is in the Data section rather than Text (patch by Michel
+ Normand, Novell #946048).
+ + using configure option "--without-fallbacks" incorrectly caused
+ FALLBACK_LIST to be set to "no" (patch by Tomas Cech).
+ + updated minitel entries to fix kel problem with emacs, and add
+ minitel1b-nb (Alexandre Montaron).
+ + reviewed/updated nsterm entry Terminal.app in OSX -TD
+ + replace some dead URLs in comments with equivalents from the
+ Internet Archive -TD
+ + update config.guess, config.sub from
+ http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
20151017
+ modify ncurses/Makefile.in to sort keys.list in POSIX locale
(Debian #801864, patch by Esa Peuha).
