Description:
With gpm version 1.20.1-6, there is something wrong that make some apps unusable, like vim or alsaconf (maybe is it ncurses ?).

For example in vim when i type ":" to enter a command, there is this message that appears somewhere on the screen :

*** debug [lib/liblow.c(210)]:
VC: 0


You can find some report about it there too :

Thanks.

I don't get this problem here. I tried using vi and alsaconf in the console with gpm running and the worked fine. There was no liblow error messages.

OK, I just got the error using vim in a terminal.
