This was addressed and fixed previously, but it is back to crashing.
Roughly:
gdb> bt
newterm_sp
newterm
initscr
__libc_start_main
I filed a bug for this.
Specifically,
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1056171
I had to recompile ncurses + cfdisk to get it to work, but it’s not a permanent solution. I don’t know how to make cfdisk use the new *.so by default, as it uses the system ones. I had to play tricks with LD_PRELOAD. I shouldn’t have to be doing this at all.
Well the fresh factory rpms didn’t help anything, and now the bug report is on fire with ncurses <-> util-linux being hammered out wrt wide char support. I thought this was the same exact thing that happened last time … anyway, the issue has traction now finally.
