then create a link to /usr/share/terminfo

ln -s /usr/share/terminfo .

Subject: [cobalt-developers] vi bug?


Hello Cobalt Gurus --

On my RaQ 2,
I am seeing a strange new behavior in vi:
when first invoked, it briefly flashes an error
message complaining that it can't open
the termcap file.  However, the termcap
file is exactly where it's supposed to be
(in /etc), it's world-readable, and its contents
are intact.  So the message makes no sense.

I have been seeing this error since I installed
the last half-dozen patches.  So I wonder whether
a recent patch included something that causes
vi to misbehave.

Does anyone in this group know anything about
that?

Thanks so much for any light you can shed!
