Hi list,

Please Cc: my when reypling, as I'm not subscribed.

I've just installed the latest snapshot ISO stamped 200707120002Z
on i386.

Whenever I run tset(1) as root, I get the following message:
% tset: terminal type !* is unknown
% Terminal type?

This message is issued on /dev/console (~ ttyE0) and other ttyE?, but
doest arise when tset(1) is run from a simple user.

Even more weirder:
% # setenv TERM vt220
% # tset -s
% tset: terminal type !* is unknown
% Terminal type?

But:
% # env TERM=vt220 tset -s
% set noglob;
% setenv TERM vt220;
% setenv TERMCAP ...;
% unset noglob;

Unfortunately I cannot easily upgrade to the latest HEAD source tree
because this box cannot reach Internet.

I've quickly searched the archives but I found nothing.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Best regards,
