Description Joakim Tjernlund 2019-10-22 14:09:45 UTC 
Current sys-libs/ncurses-compat-5.9 does not recognise  xterm-256color,
probably due to an internal ncurses change. See 
https://bugs.gentoo.org/648720
https://bugs.gentoo.org/688894

I had the same problem with emacs and ncurses-5.9 and then ported 
ncurses-6.1_p20190609 to ABI 5.9 and then xterm-256color started to work.
Attaching my quick port of ncurses-compat-6.1_p20190609

Probably needs some tweaking
Comment 2 Joakim Tjernlund 2019-10-31 15:19:16 UTC 
just noticed, --with-abi-version=5.9 should be --with-abi-version=5
Comment 3 Joakim Tjernlund 2019-11-08 01:19:42 UTC 
I guess it also make sense from a security POV, 5.9 is rather old.
