Because vifm from comunity repo was for me unusable (drawing windows was broken) i've created another
version of patch for ncurses 5.8 library. Please check if it's work correctly with those changes.
Path also contains some fixes from 0.6 version of vifm.

[jelle@P8][~]%pacq vifm
vifm 0.5-3

This version works for me
Is there a new version out?

Please update vifm to the new patch. Then vifm works much better on tiling window managers, since it solves the problem of vifm occupying only a small part of the window.
