1. tack

I compiled Ncurses 5.6 according to the instructions in section 10.22 
"Ncurses-5.6 64 bit" of the Book on a complete CLFS 1.1 system.

The patch ncurses-5.6-branch_update-3.patch removes all files
pertaining to tack.

Try this:

$ fgrep "/tack/"  ncurses-5.6-branch_update-3.patch | less

$ tar tfz ncurses-5.6.tar.gz | fgrep "/tack/" | sort -n > tmpa
$ fgrep "/tack/"  ncurses-5.6-branch_update-3.patch | sort -n  > tmpb
$ paste -s -d " " tmpa tmpb

After ./configure and make, find naturally reports nothing:

$ find . -name 'tack*'


2. resizecons

(Kbd version 1.13) I found this in src/Makefile.in:

ifeq ($(ARCH), i386)
PROGS += resizecons
endif


Hope this helps.
