ncurses 6.4+20231118-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ncurses (6.4+20231118-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream patchlevel.
    - Modify reset command to avoid altering clocal if the terminal uses
      a modem (prompted by discussion with Werner Fink, Michal Suchanek,
      Closes: #60377).
    - Correct loop termination condition in waddnstr() and waddnwstr()
      (Closes: #1055882).
  * Refresh Debian patches.
    - Drop the workaround for #933053 from patch 02-debian-xterm.diff,
      it had been non-functional since version 6.2+20210905-1.
  * Move all libraries below /usr (Closes: #1055940).
  * Install libtermcap.so as a symlink rather than a linker script.
  * Explicitly configure the non-wide builds with --disable-widec.
