Ncurses application and weird charset

[zero]

Hello,

I've got weird charset with ncurses application
like moc,mcabber and other. I tried to recompile
ncurses and libc with a correct "locale" but nothing
changed.

Hi, Zero.

I had a similar problem, and in investigating it found that I had two ncurses libraries installed. One library was from ports at devel/ncurses and the other came with FreeBSD 8 and is found in /usr/src/contrib/ncurses.

I uninstalled devel/ncurses and then rebuilt moc, mcabber, and mc, and that seems to have fixed the problem.

I hope that helps.
