Re: help with setenv of perl-curses

[ng0 <ng0@we.make.ritual.n0.is>]

Possibly fixed with this patch. Things I have not addressed so
far and require input on: How to do this
"perl Makefile.PL PANELS MENUS FORMS" in the setup.
Successfully built does not mean functional in all cases, so I
will build the package I needed this for now and see if it
changed.
