Subject: Bug#3830: captoinfo confused by /etc/termcap entries

Package: ncurses-bin
Version: 1.9.9e-1

Package: termcap-compat
Version: 1.0.0-1

I'm trying to report this bug against ncurses-bin 1.9.9e-1 *and*
termcap-compat 1.0.0-1, hoping the bug system will handle it. If
not, could one of the maintainers forward it to the other one?

When doing `captoinfo /etc/termcap' I get errors:

"/etc/termcap", line 6152: col 36: terminal 'citoh', 'rp' unknown % code '0' = 0
x30
"/etc/termcap", line 6509: col 52: terminal 'cs10', 'cm' unknown % code '0' = 0x

"/etc/termcap", line 8545: col 36: terminal 'cbblit', 'pO' unknown % code '0' =

I don't know what is faulty (termcap or captoinfo).
Yves.

Putting the packages separated with commas in the same Package line
may do this.
