@Raspberry_Pi Silly question, is there an issue tracker for the 32-bit OS?

I can find the 64-bit tracker (on Github) but not the 32-bit tracker.

`tput civis` ("hide cursor") worked in Raspbian OS release `2022-09-22-raspios-buster-armhf-lite` but broke (reports "unknown terminal capability") in `2023-05-03-raspios-buster-armhf-lite`.

Clearly a /#ncurses issue -- but not quite sure where to start digging.

i've had a very weird and annoying problem with terminal sessions that shows up once i leave localhost and have logged in to another system and locally an `ls -la` in `/iow/users/emory/flipperzero-repodepot\ ƒ` shows the aperture-f that was once Apple's way of naming Folders?

anyway on two-three workstations locally it renders that ƒ.

once i ssh to one of the others or my raspi head node or my NAS those `ƒ` characters render as garbage and/or "????" AND IT DRIVES ME CRAZY

Hi , has anyone got the WY-120 to work correctly on with any entries? Specifically, it has trouble with backspace/delete, arrow keys and general page layout. ?

PS: I've seen @veronicaexplains's wonderful video on the WY-55 but this one unforunately seems to have different behaviour.

I just realized that not even terminal output my father's generation did it correctly!

There are bugs in terminfo. And Stallman only published a manual on the old termcap (not on the newer terminfo).

If only the existance of termcap and terminfo was a good thing...

What a mess!
