Failed to lock terminal

[francozappa]

Hi,

After a recent Linux system upgrade I'm getting the following error (from src/terminal.rs:82) when I execute rogcat:

Failed to lock terminal

I'm getting the same error even uninstalling and re-installing rogcat using cargo.

adb logcat on the other hand works properly

Some extra info:

Linux x1 4.14.27-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Mar 15 19:47:13 UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Hi. Looks like term has problems to detect your terminal type. Can you please post $TERM?

[francozappa]

Hi @flxo ,

My $TERM is either screen-256color (tmux) or xterm-256color and I haven't changed it recently.

Thanks

Can you please check the availability of terminfo files as noted in the term readme?

Packaging and Distributing

For all terminals but windows consoles, this library depends on a non-hashed (for now) terminfo database being present. For example, on Debian derivitives, you should depend on ncurses-term; on Arch Linux, you depend on ncurses; and on MinGW, you should depend on mingw32-terminfo.

I've found a temporary solution by downgrading ncurses to version 6.0-4

Thanks for your help!

[flxo]

Ok. That means that term isn't compatible with your terminfo stuff. Would be nice if you could file a report there. What distribution are you using?

[francozappa]

Yep, I'm using Manjaro Linux and ncurses 6.1-3

EDIT: I've filed an issue Stebalien/term#83
