I reported this same problem, with BitchX in #43302. Had to revert to 5.3 to fix.

azarah: was 5.4 destined for stable right away or was that just a fluke ?

I'm getting the same with Gnome-Terminal (2.4.x) and Irssi
Thank you for reporting this bug. I have the same problem for nano and the same solution. Revert to ncurses-5.3-r5. Crashoverride71
same problem in italian forum thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=143667 gnome-terminal and nano, i reverted to 5.3-r5 too
I am having this scroll problem with gnome-terminal running mutt and irssi.
i talked to spyderous last nite about this and it seems that the common element here is people using consoles with TERM=Xterm he tried out Eterm and didnt have the problem (Eterm is what i have always used and thus never had this problem)
Did you update the terminfo files (in /etc/terminfo/). Can you try to restart X ?
yes.. i -5 replaced them with etc-update and restarted X before submitting the bug.
i get this behavior, too (under gnome-terminal only).... if you export TERM=xterm-color or even TERM=rxvt, things go back to normal... the standard linux console (TERM=linux) works fine... I think this is a problem with /etc/terminfo/x/xterm .... what's the diff between the 5.3 and 5.4 version of it?
Created attachment 26719 [details] terminfo/x/xterm from 5.3
Created attachment 26720 [details] terminfo/x/xterm from 5.4
*** Bug 43494 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
that's better... just replaced the 5.4 version of /etc/terminfo/x/xterm with the 5.3 version. things are happy now.
Irssi is broken with 5.4 and with gnome-terminal
Please try -r1 which should revert to 5.3 behaviour ...
With -r1, nano seems fine now. Thanks heaps! Hopefully those with other apps confirm.
No problem now with nano and 5.4-r1.
5.4-r1 should take care of this then
