Description:

ncurses 6.0+20161112-1 messes with terminal color settings


Additional info:
* bug introduced in version 6.0+20161112-1
* version 6.0-4 works as expected


Steps to reproduce:
- start a fresh terminal emulator, that is configured with custom colors (e.g. base16-shell)
- start an application that loads libncursesw.so.6 and supports terminal colors
- terminal colors are messed up / resetted to defaults / similar
- persists after closing the application (i.e. you have to re-source base16-shell theme)

Please check whether the new version was built using different configure/make flags or if upstream changed some defaults or whatever.
This task depends upon

Tried tig, vitetris, and htop. All look normal.

I can't reproduce it – and should be brought upstream anyway.
