Package: libncurses5
Version: 5.3.20030510-2
Severity: normal

I have a screen session with irssi, giFTcurs, and pork running.

Whenever I restore pork either by screen -r or paging to it from
another terminal in the screen, its characters are totally garbled and
one or two ^L's will fix it. And this happens with giFTcurs too.

This is getting kind of annoying and other people have experienced this
too. If you can't reproduce it I will send screenshots :)
