--------------------------------------

             Summary: Asterisk is unable to read extended number format terminfo files
                 Key: ASTERISK-29630
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-29630
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: General
    Affects Versions: 16.20.0
            Reporter: Sean Bright


ncurses 6.1 introduced an extended number format for terminfo files which the terminfo parsing in Asterisk is not able to parse. This results in some {{TERM}} values that do support color ({{screen-256color}} on Ubuntu 20.04 for example) to not get a color console.

We can probably use ncurses directly to query the capabilities of the terminal, but this gets things working in the short term.
