The /etc/termcap in termcap-compat is well outdated.
You can create one yourself using 'tic -C', from what I have read (ncurses-bin and ncurses-base). I tried this with 'misc/terminfo.src' from the ncurses source package, and it appeared to work correctly.
I think it will be easiest to just remove terminal hemlock from the package, I have not seen anyone using it in the last few years. Any objections?
I use it, but you've never seen me. ;) No matter; I'm fairly certain I can live with fixing up stuff so I can still use it. I think it's not a great solution to remove a feature just because people don't want /etc/termcap around, but I guess that is the way it works. (I don't know what you mean by "remove terminal hemlock", but disabling stuff just because there is no /etc/termcap in Debian would, I think, be a bit unnecessary; it does, after all, check $TERMCAP before it checks for /etc/termcap. I, personally, would probably just get a /etc/termcap from somewhere. On the other hand, I can also live without using packaged CMUCL.)
