[Clfs-dev] CLFS-1.1.0 -- ncurses

[Jonathan Norman]

Hey Don,

There is a ticket to enable UTF-8 support in CLFS 1.20. Part of this  
means using --enable-widec
for ncurses and replacing the non-wide characters with it.

The ticket is here: http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ticket/182

I might have a look into doing some of this over the weekend.
