  jperkin: ncursesw vanished from latest trunk update? But libncursesw is a requirement for varnish bins like varnishstat or varnishtop. Would it be possible to get it back?

  In the pkgin update log it says: 1 package to remove (superseded):

  ncursesw-6.4

  I tried to install the ncursesw package from the previous trunk build with: pkg_add -Dfu ncursesw-6.4.tgz, but it failed:

  pkg_add: Installed package `ncurses-6.5' conflicts with `ncursesw-[0-9]*' when trying to install `ncursesw-6.4'.

  pkg_add: 1 package addition failed

  Any idea how I could fix it?

  jperkin_: Copied the raw libncursesw files into place to get varnishstat working again. But this is a bit suboptimal. Why does it state superseded?
