Bug Description

Binary package hint: rxvt-unicode

Terminal information is not present. For example using less results in:

$ less /var/log/messages
WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
/var/log/messages (press RETURN)

Using emacs gives:

$ /usr/bin/emacs -nw /var/log/messages
emacs: Terminal type rxvt-256color is not defined.
If that is not the actual type of terminal you have,
use the Bourne shell command `TERM=... export TERM' (C-shell:
`setenv TERM ...') to specify the correct type. It may be necessary
to do `unset TERMINFO' (C-shell: `unsetenv TERMINFO') as well.

Solution: install ncurses-term which addes the missing rxvt-256color under /lib/terminfo
