The CLEX 3.15 package has worked well for many years, but in 16.04 it fails.
CLEX 3.15 reached end-of-life in May 2011, but there is no Ubuntu package for the current CLEX release, 4.6.
The CLEX author has posted a workaround at http://www.clex.sk/, though he believes the problem is not in CLEX but in ncurses.
CLEX author will investigate with ncurses developers, but shouldn't there be a new Ubuntu package for the current CLEX release? |
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install `clex` on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
2. Try to launch `clex`
Expected results:
* `clex` is opened and shows files and directories
Actual results:
* `clex` does no open, shows message in the terminal:
```
$ clex
Starting CLEX 3.15
Terminating CLEX: Cannot read the keyboard input
```
