Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

When building ncurses --with-termlib a separate library tinfo is created and
should be linked to have full functionality of pinentry ncurses.

A simple dirty patch is attached, but more appropriate solution is to use
pkg-config.

I tested your pkg-config patch on Debian Jessie and everything still compiles
fine. I've applied the pkg-config patch. If gentoo is now using a newer
version of this patch, please let me know. Thanks.
