Hi,
there are several packages which fail to link since they are missing
'-ltinfo' - recently
app-antivirus/clamav-0.99.4-r1
For a temporary fix I have edited the config.status file by changing
S["CURSES_LIBS"]="-lncurses"
to
S["CURSES_LIBS"]="-lncurses -ltinfo"
and using
ebuild /usr/portage/app-antivirus/clamav/clamav-0.99.4-r1.ebuild merge
But I think that this is a more general problem.
Has anybody found a fix which works for several such packages?
Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut

This are bugs in the build system of the package which is not detecting the separate library. You should file a bug about it.
Is there a special requirement for building ncurses with tinfo? If not the easy fix is disabling the tinfo USE flag for ncurses.

Many thanks, Daniel.
I can't remember why I HAD TO add the tinfo USE flag to ncurses.

AFAIRC, android-related things required that, for example.
