| >Description:
| When xterm (or aterm) is resized with running ncmpc, ncmpc segfaults and dumps core. After using ncurses from pkgsrc, xterm can be shrinked and expanded without segfaulting ncmpc.
| >How-To-Repeat:
| Build ncmpc, run, then resize (e.g. shrink) xterm.
| >Fix:
| This patch fixed the thing and remove redundant entry:

I think that we should fix curses instead or the program, whichever has the
bug.
