BTW, the "Red Hat" way is:
libncurses5-devel
contains static libs (and import libs, in cygwin parlance)
contains header files
contains the man (3) pages
RH also includes the source code/makefile for the test progs
libncurses5
contains shared libs only (DLLs)
ncurses
contains the utility programs
contains the terminfo database/tabset stuff
contains the man (1),(5), and (7) pages
Note that RH's terminfo database, as installed, is stripped down.
Perhaps this is a better plan? (Doesn't avoid any of the problems
mentioned in my other email, and makes maintaining the terminfo database
separately more difficult, but....)
