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.
+20191116
+ + modify ncurses/Makefile.in to fix a case where Debian/testing changes
+ to the ld --as-needed configuration broke ncurses-examples test
+ packages.
+ + drop library-dependency on psapi for MinGW port, since win_driver.c
+ defines PSAPI_VERSION to 2, making it use GetProcessImageFileName
+ from kernel32.dll (prompted by patch by Simon Sobish, cf: 20140503).
+
+20191109
+ + add warning-check in tic for terminals with parm_dch vs parm_ich.

+20191019
+ + modify make_hash to not require --disable-leaks, to simplify building

+ treating that as a partial success can cause an infinite loop in
+ use-resolution (report/testcase by Hongxu Chen, cf: 20111001).
+
+20191015
+ + improve buffer-checks in captoinfo.c, for some cases when the
+ input string is shorter than expected.
+ > fix two errata in tic (report/testcases by Hongxu Chen):

+ noticed with MacOS but applicable to other platforms without
+ libpanelw, etc.

+20190810
+ + fix a few more coverity warnings.
+
+20190803
+ + improve loop limits in _nc_scroll_window() to handle a case where
+ the scrolled data is a pad which is taller than the window (patch
+ by Rob King).
