Can anyone tell me what I did to make some of them do that to their ncurses

Aptitude is the only place I've seen this (yet), and I've played with locales
and googled and looked at man pages -- no joy. It has something to do with the
VT-100 'graphics' chars, I think, but I can't figure out how to fix it...

Hi,
Check the Preferences dialog in aptitude. This feature is controlled
by the item:
[] Prompt for confirmation at exit
LOL, I believe he is referring to the strange characters!
OIC. I guess I am the strange character in this case.
The term "locales" should have been a hint.
And I thought I had a chance to be useful -- as something other than
comic relief, I mean.
