The ncurses library routines are a terminal-independent method of updating character screens with reasonable optimization.
This package contains the programs used for manipulating the terminfo database and individual terminfo entries, as well as some programs for resetting terminals and such.

- Cherry-pick tic fixes from upstream patchlevels 20191012, 20191015 and 20191019 (Closes: #942401).
- Check for invalid hashcode in _nc_find_type_entry and nc_find_entry (CVE-2019-17594).
- Check for missing character after backslash in fmt_entry
- Check for acsc with odd length in dump_entry in check for one-one mapping.
- Check for missing character after backslash in write_it.
- Modify tic to exit if it cannot remove a conflicting name, because treating that as a partial success can cause an infinite loop in use-resolution.
