[arch-general] ncurses 5.9_20141101 no longer available
I've installed it via the usual 'pacman -Syu' https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/plain/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/ncurses&id=2c435d5fb4683c3cd144fd5c68ace98458405ee9 now I get a warning warning: ncurses: local (5.9_20141101-1) is newer than core (5.9-6) and this version isn't listed in the online package database: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=ncurses What happened and how should I proceed?

This isn't the version from the official repositories. [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Si ncurses Repository : core Name : ncurses Version : 5.9-6 [snip] Take a look what's enabled in your /etc/pacman.conf.

I got the same message while updating, and I'm on the kernel.org mirror. -- Cheers! Savya

If you're running testing, you should be subscribed to arch-dev-public. The explanation is there, the version was dropped.

Thank you, I must have accidentally removed the e-mail as I am subscribed to arch-dev-public. I did look in the bug tracker, but found nothing there. On Sat, Nov 15, 2014 at 5:05 AM, Ralf Mardorf <ralf.mardorf@rocketmail.com> wrote:

I know. I've included two links in my e-mail, have you seen them? Anyway, mystery solved: I need to pay more attention and work on my due diligence :-)

I suspect that things like this sometimes happen to everybody subscribed to this list, while I prefer to do faux pas running rm, instead of pacman. IMOH rm is a much better command for a really good faux pas.

Hi,
I dropped the ncurses prerelease version from [testing]. It had an annoying problem with tmux and the screen* terminfos that resulted in standout (reverse) being rendered as italic.

I need to correct my statement. "Testing" is an official repository too, but after others explained more detailed what happened, I guess it's plausible what I wanted to point out :D.
