Package: libcurses-ocaml Version: 1.0.3-1+b1 Severity: normal Tags: l10n
As of release 1.0.3, upstream ocaml-curses supports wide-character-enabled ncurses. This feature is required in order to render UTF-8 encoded text, for example. It would be ideal if the package enabled this capability. Supporting this feature would require: 1) Depending on libncursesw5 2) Configuring the package with --enable-widec The following script can test for support of this feature: echo -e '#require "curses";;\nlet s = if Curses.Curses_config.wide_ncurses then "wide char ok!" else "no wide char support." in print_endline s;;' | ocaml Paul -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (700, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libcurses-ocaml depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-4 shared libraries for terminal hand ii ocaml-base-nox [ocaml-bas 3.11.2-1 Runtime system for OCaml bytecode libcurses-ocaml recommends no packages. libcurses-ocaml suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
