Description Sven 2004-09-06 17:22:45 UTC 
when libtermcap-compat-1.2.3-r1 is installed

# ./configure |grep termcap
checking for readline... yes (-lreadline -ltermcap)

when libtermcap-compat is not installed:

# ./configure |grep readline
checking for readline... yes (-lreadline -lncurses)
checking readline/readline.h usability... yes
checking readline/readline.h presence... yes
checking for readline/readline.h... yes
checking readline/history.h usability... yes
checking readline/history.h presence... yes
checking for readline/history.h... yes


And i think that postgresql should better not use termcap, but ncruses. I think it's more like a postgresql-bug that it detect termcap, but can your patch it somehow?

Reproducible: Always

sorry for being late.

I agree with you.
I've just added postgresql-7.4.5-r1 which wouldn't use termcap library.
It seems ok. Can you also try that?

I'm going to patch to 7.3.7 as well later.
