Created attachment 687600 [details] ebuild for ncurses-compat with aiblity to build versioned symbols Please add the ability to build ncurses-compat with versioned symbols (add --with-verisoned-symbols to the configure stage). Attaching ebuild with metadata - I added an off-by-default flag "versyms". Please note: - I'm not attaching the patches as they are the same as in ::gentoo - I'm not the greatest at creativity, feel free to rename the flag - My ebuild design skills are probably not at the height of ncurses-compat's - please see if I'm missing something. At the very least, it was mentioned in IRC that we are also building tic with the same do_configure, so I'm passing the same option (along with many others) to tic - This works on my [amd64] machine (tm) and got rid of a warning

For those interested, the reason I need this is that a bundled qtcreator (Sailfish SDK) complained that libtinfo.so.5 dind't have versioned symbols. I first considered adding this to my package.env, but seeing on the wider internet that some other people seem to bump into this issue, I decided to request this as a feature.
