#1686 closed defect (fixed)

/etc/profile.d/tinker-term.sh is no longer needed

Description (last modified by alexander@…)

Ncurses-5.5, currently used in LFS SVN, has color capabilities by default in the "xterm" terminal type, thus making the tinker-term.sh scriptlet unneeded.

I propose to add words near this scriptlet that it is not needed with ncurses 5.5, because there are people who use BLFS SVN with LFS-6.1. Please don't close this bug after you do that.

After the release of LFS-6.2, the entire scriptlet should be removed and the bug should be closed.

OK, I'm on it. Added a note in r5686 that the script shouldn't be installed with Ncurses-5.5+. I'll fully remove the script when LFS stable goes to this version.
