goaccess-0.9-tinfo.patch

1. Sorry for a huge delay. I have just made a pull request to goaccess' github repository, which fixes this issue.
2. Patch to fix this also attached. We should better wait a couple of days for upstream decision, before including this patch into ebuild.
Since ebuild uses epatch_user, you can flawlessly apply it using it, if you can't wait:
2.1. mkdir -p /etc/portage/patches/net-analyzer/goaccess/
2.2. nano /etc/portage/patches/net-analyzer/goaccess/goaccess-0.9-tinfo.patch
2.3. emerge -atv goaccess
3. After upstream decision, I will make an ebuild bump to its recent version, which will have this patch or backported fix from upstream.
