This bug is similar to this one https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=464032 except the fix for bug 464032 has been included with current version of pidgin I am trying to install in order to complete the Gnome upgrade.
Just in case, I might have built sys-libs/ncurses[-tinfo], however nvidia-cuda-toolkit needs sys-libs/ncurses[tinfo] and I need nvidia-cuda-toolkit. So, building sys-libs/ncurses[-tinfo] is not an acceptable option.
