[arch-dev-public] [signoff] ncurses-5.7-2.1
Signoff for ncurses-5.7-2.1 on x86_64 only. It seems most major distros use --chtype=long for their x86_64 ncurses builds due to binary compatibility with old versions of ncurses. So, some binary blobs may need this (see FS#13351). The wide character library (that all our packages are linked against), is not changed. I would like a signoff from someone using a binary blob that links to ncurses. Allan

I had a user report that the binary blob they were using now works without problems so just any x86_64 signoff is needed here. Allan
