Comment 1 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-08-04 14:14:18 UTC
The ebuild throws a warning that you have to build ncurses with unicode support, if you want it. Did you miss that  or is there some other issue?

Perhaps you need to install the appropriate fonts supporting Cyrillic script, or set your console to use those.
Comment 4 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-08-04 17:27:26 UTC
Grepping make.conf doesn't mean anything. It doesn't imply you had this use flags set, when you did build ncurses. Also there are so many ways use flags can be set, unset, forced or masked via profile, ebuild or locally.

Does the output of `emerge sys-libs/ncurses -pv` match?

 emerge -pv ncurses

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Snownews-1.5.9 works great. 
I diff 1.5.9 and 1.5.10 ebuild:

Upstream have removed unicode output charset.
So please, report it to upstream.
