Good question. Maybe Johan's patch fixes it. |

Sorry for the mess, by the way. reemerging less is indeed the way to |
9 |
go. Reason why I did this, is because I consider this project to be |
10 |
still in beta state, so now this kind of issues can still be fixed (and |
11 |
breaking systems, sorry!) which is impossible afterwards. |

Thanks for looking after the reason, it is because ncurses' library |
14 |
location changed. There is still a problem with ncurses with regard to |
15 |
the library location, and I think the only acceptable way out is by |
16 |
patching the makefiles such that the two libraries that Gentoo wants in |
17 |
lib are installed in lib, and the rest in usr/lib. Not sure how "easy" |
18 |
that is, though. |
