Are you saying that, on your system, the FileViewer screen driver links fine withont -ltinfo?
Which release of which distribution are you using?

I am doing the bump of brltty to version 6.8 in Buildroot: Without this patch I got this build error: /home/dario/projects/buildroot/output/host/bin/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -shared -Wl,-export-dynamic -o ../../../lib/libbrlttyxfv.so screen.o -ltinfo Looking online, it seems that tinfo is part of ncurses, but the tinfo library is not necessarily included in it — however, the symbols are still resolved. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ncurses/+bug/259139 |

Link libtinfo only if the library is present.
