    Hello All,

    While this so far is only in regards to SCFG, it may affect other things that I

    haven't tested.

    Yesterday I upgraded (Archlinux) ncurses-6.0+20170527-1 to ncurses-6.0+20170902-1, and the two major applications I use on that machine (SCFG and Golded - of which both are used with ncurses in a TTY console - no X whatsoever) began displaying all garbled up, and/or half the screen was blank until I hovered over some text with a lightbar of sorts.

    Golded was the first culprit, and when that happened I tested SCFG to make sure

    it wasn't just something specific to one program. However, they both acted basically the same.

    Has anyone else noticed this? I don't have many other GUI programs like SCFG or

    Golded installed on that machine, so if someone else has seen it, and can try any other TTY console programs they may have to verify there indeed is an issue.. I'll gladly take the issues upstream, unless they've already addressed it in the +20170909 version that Archlinux apparantly hasn't tested and put into it's repos yet.

    Regards,
    Nick
