Shouldn't the shared libraries be split into separate packages and not simply grouped by .so.6.0 and .so.5.0?
Those libraries *are* splitted into separate packages, we have libncurses5 for 5.6 and libncurses6 for 6.0.
But you have libncurses.so.5.6 and libncursesw.so.5.6 in libncurses5 and libncursest.so.6.0 and libncursestw.so.6.0 in libncurses6, right? I was suggesting to have libncursest6, libncursestw6, libncursesw5 and libncurses5.
That is needlessy more packages.
$ rpm -e libncurses5 2>&1 | grep libncurses.so | wc -l 33 $ rpm -e libncurses5 2>&1 | grep libncursesw.so | wc -l 12
And that's a fair share already IMHO to put them together, like it is done in SUSE 11.0.
Di you want enforce all applications tio use the wide character version ... even is incompatible?
