Could you run a gdb backtrace on `hh`? Which terminal emulator did you use?
I've tried kde-apps/konsole-17.12.3, kde-misc/yakuake (uses the konsole component underneath, AFAIK), x11-terms/xterm-327, xfce4-terminal-0.8.6. and x11-terms/cool-retro-term-1.0.1. I've also tried different TERM={xterm,xterm-256colors,konsole} values. None of these seem to make a difference. I've rebuilt ncurses and hstr with USE=debug to get the following (using x11-terms/xterm): $ gdb $(which hh) GNU gdb (Gentoo 8.0.1 p1) 8.0.1 Copyright (C) 2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

vifm upstream bug filed probably related to this problem: https://github.com/vifm/vifm/issues/325
It seems this is related to tinfo. Rebuilding ncurses/hstr with -tinfo has stopped it crashing for me.
Still present with 1.25. The workaround of using ncurses-6.0 instead of ncurses-6.1 isn't available anymore. On the other hand, `USE=-tinfo emerge ncurses;emerge @preserved-rebuild` works for me too. The benefits of USE=tinfo are probably minimal, since most programs will need the two libs anyway ? So maybe USE=tinfo should be removed, or at least default to off ?
looks like upstream fixed it by forcing tinfow usage. our hstr ebuild should do the same in hstr-1.23-tinfo.patch, and probably add a RDEPEND on ncurses[unicode] since that's the only way to get the wide versions of the library.
