[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: ncurses-5.5-2, libncurses8-5.5-2, libncurses-devel-5.5-2, ncurses-demo-5.5-2


ncurses is a package that provides character and terminal handling libraries, including 'gui-like' panels and menus. It is often used instead of termcap.

CHANGES since 5.4-2:
o Update to latest release with current patchset (20060318)
o Compiled using settings to ensure ABI compatibility
  with cygncurses-8.dll [*]
o Fixed bug in tput.exe described here:
     http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-03/msg00184.html
  (thanks, Samuel Thibault)

[*] forthcoming ncurses 'test' packages will turn on additional (new) features in the 5.5 series, but break ABI compatibility (and will therefore necessitate a DLL package version-bump).
