Hi people.


I downloaded vshnu-1.0010 just a few minutes ago but it seems to be a bit
uncooperative.

I hardlinked libperl/Term/{Screen,ANSIColor} to
~/libp/Term/{Screen,ANSIColor}.pm, and this stopped the vshnu script from
complaining about missing Screen and ANSIColor

However, it starts complaining about:
"Can't find a valid termcap file at /home/karltk/libp/Term/Screen.pm line
230"

An strace tells me it's looking for /etc/termcap. Termcap seems to be
superceded by terminfo in most distros.

My temporary solution was to fetch
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/terminfo/termtypes.tc.gz
and install it as ~/.termcap.

It would probably be a smart move to go for terminfo for newer releases.

Karl T
