[issue7384] curses crash on FreeBSD

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah <stefan-usenet at bytereef.org> added the comment:

Committed in r81669,r81672,r81683 (trunk) and r81830,81831 (py3k).


What to do with the releases? To recap, the fix is:

  1) Detect if readline is already linked against ncurses and
     if so, skip any further selection. This must be done.

  2) Use the same version of ncurses for readline.so and _curses.so.


1) should be done in any case. 2) could change the behavior for
users who previously had readline/ncurses, cursesmodule/ncursesw,
but only use the cursesmodule in an application.
