On thread about switching from libtermcap to ncurses was about
libncurses size vis libtermcap. Why not enable --with-termlib in
ncurses. After this only libtermlib[w] can sit in /{_lib} and all other
shared libraries can be installed in %{_libdir} because all applications
which now uses termcap API can be linked with only libtermlib.

Second: now ncurses package contains shared libncurses and libncursesw.
Why not all link all against libncursesw ? It will allow drop libncurses
(or move to compat-ncurses). It will allow make main package ~two time
smaller.
If you are interested I can send you all my ncursesw patches (all tested
and used more than half year on production; most of changes requires
only fixes on autoconf leel).

(don't talk me about fill 22 separated entries in Fedora BTS).
Most of this patches can be easy extended for use libtermlib[w].

Current ncurses patch changes:

-AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, termlib termcap curses ncurses)
+AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, ncurses)

Why not:

-AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, termlib termcap curses ncurses)
+AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, ncursesw ncurses termlib termcap curses)

or even better (after build ncurses with --with-termlib):

-AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, termlib termcap curses ncurses)
+AC_SEARCH_LIBS(tgetent, termlibw ncursesw termlib ncurses termcap
curses)

??

Probably last form of this fix can be submited to tcsh maintainer for
include in dist source tree.
Please prepare fixes using mind not hands ;>
