Subject: [PATCH] gnu: rxvt-unicode: Add the terminal capability data.

This adds the necessary terminal capability data which are not provided
by Ncurses due to a personal conflict between the respective
maintainers.  See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-ncurses/2009-10/msg00031.html.

I think it's best not to describe the issue in these terms in the
codebase. I don't know the situation, but if it is as you say, I think
it will never get better as things like this "cement" the conflict in
source code. Also, ncurses seems to be capitalized only at the beginning
of a sentence. How about this:

This sets the destination when installing the necessary terminal
capability data, which are not provided by ncurses. See

As Leo suggests, I think it’s best to stick to the technical facts,
along with a link to the discussion.

Same here.

Otherwise LGTM.  It’s great that you fixed this!  People had reported
the issue on IRC, so that’ll make them happy!  :-)

I think this is only a partial fix. to launch emacsclient I still need
to do this:

  TERMINFO="$HOME/.guix-profile/share/terminfo" emacsclient --tty foo

in terminfo(5), we can read this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Fetching Compiled Descriptions
    The ncurses library  searches  for  terminal  descriptions  in  several
    places.   It  uses only the first description found.  The library has a
    compiled-in list of places to search which can be overridden  by  envi‐
    ronment  variables.   Before  starting  to  search,  ncurses eliminates
    duplicates in its search list.
    
     ·  If the environment variable TERMINFO is set, it is  interpreted  as
        the pathname of a directory containing the compiled description you
        are working on.  Only that directory is searched.
    
     ·  If TERMINFO is not set, ncurses will instead look in the  directory
        $HOME/.terminfo for a compiled description.

     ·  Next,  if  the  environment  variable TERMINFO_DIRS is set, ncurses
        will interpret the contents of that variable as a  list  of  colon-
        separated directories (or database files) to be searched.

        An  empty directory name (i.e., if the variable begins or ends with
        a colon, or contains adjacent colons) is interpreted as the  system
        location /etc/terminfo.

     ·  Finally, ncurses searches these compiled-in locations:
         ·  a list of directories (no default value), and
         ·  the  system  terminfo directory, /etc/terminfo (the compiled-in
            default).
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I suppose that "system terminfo directory" is set to
/gnu/store/...-ncurses-6.0 and IIUC correctly this is the only place
automatically searched.  What about adding TERMINFO_DIRS in
"$HOME/.guix-profile/etc/profile"?  I think TERMINFO_DIRS is more
appropriate than TERMINFO because it let the possibility for non-GuixSD
users to have multiple directories in it.

Here is an updated patch with my proposal:

Indeed, sounds good.

This should be in the ncurses package itself, since it is “owned” by
ncurses, not rxvt.

However, there’s the limitation that, currently, --search-paths
advertises the variables of things that are explicitly in the profile.
Ncurses is usually not in the profile; it is a dependency of something
that is in the profile.  Thus, people wouldn’t see anything about
TERMINFO_DIRS in practice (we have the same problem with OpenSSL,
GStreamer, and other librairies that have associated variables.)

Long story short, I would avoid adding this ‘native-search-paths’ here,
but I’m OK with it since that would make the thing usable, provided
there’s a big FIXME in there.

WDYT?

Ludo’.

Since the linked discussion is from 2009, maybe somebody should again
try to politely submit the patch upstream.

It makes sense.  Since it is quite complicated, what about creating a
bug report explaining the problem and make the comment refer to it like
this:

  ;; FIXME: This is not located in `ncurses' for usability reasons.  See
  ;; https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=XXXXX

WDYT?  Can you take care of creating the bug report or propose an
appropriate FIXME comment?  I don't feel up to explaining this myself.

Thanks,

Good idea.  It’s at <https://bugs.gnu.org/22138>.
