Description P Nienaber 2005-05-05 18:20:43 UTC
might be irssi (net-irc/irssi-0.8.10_rc5-r1), but this version of ncurses breaks text scrolling in irssi, while sys-libs/ncurses-5.4-r6 works just fine.  confirmed that re-merging irssi does not fix it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =sys-libs/ncurses-5.4.20050319
2. irssi
3.

Actual Results:  
text scrolling in irssi doesn't properly shift ALL text up the screen now.

Expected Results:  
behave like a normal IRC client?
