Bug#4054: Missing features in terminfo database
Package: ncurses3.0
Version: 1.9.9e-1
It seems the ncurses terminfo database misses significant features. When
trying to display mime encoded mail I do not get the correct features.
For instance try to display the following file with 'richtext <file>'
<nl><center>Test1
</center><nl><flushleft><nl><nl>
<bold>Test2
</bold>
The first line should be centered, the second should be written in bold
face. Instead I get:
Test1
Test2
When looking for the problem I saw that richtext tries to read the "md"
sequence (available in /etc/termcap) but couldn't find it and thus removed
the bold feature. The same holds for center.
