Description Jamie Landeg-Jones 2022-02-23 01:14:00 UTC 
/usr/local/share/terminfo.db previously backed up to /usr/local/share/terminfo.db.default

The script /usr/ports/Keywords/terminfo.ucl (run in this case by x11/kitty install) nuked my terminfo when run.

It blindly copies terminfo.db.default to terminfo.db before running tic on new files.

Thank you for the report Jamie
Comment 2 Jamie Landeg-Jones 2023-07-10 14:50:08 UTC 
The changes to use the terminfo directory tree instead of the terminfo.db database have made this bug report obsolete.
