 Hi Joerg,
 
 I think you can safely close this ticket, then.  (The old version of
 pkg_install had the file pkg_install/lib/ftpio.c that made use of
 termcap functionality, so I assume that was the reason for the
 inclusion of the check originally.  Now that you've rewritten things,
 that's irrelevant.)
 
 Thanks,
 
 Dave
