Ah, it is explicitly left out of the packages:
# Blacklist terminfo entries shipped by other Debian packages so that
we do
# not begin shipping them by accident.
badterminfo = 5/5250 b/bterm i/iterm i/iterm-am i/iterm-color \
j/jfbterm k/kon l/linux-5250 m/mlterm
This was the fix for bug #313278, which also involved mlterm.
David, I can't start shipping it unless mlterm wants to stop.
Tomohiro-san, what do you think? The advantage to shipping it in
ncurses, especially ncurses-base, is that it would be easier to ssh to
other Debian machines.
