cscope: Link tinfow instead of tinfo
Whenever attempting to use any ncurses functionality within cscope, a page fault would result within the ncurses library. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff7fad3cf in termattrs_sp () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x00007ffff7fad3cf in termattrs_sp () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff7faa794 in _nc_setupscreen_sp () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 #2 0x00007ffff7fa614c in newterm_sp () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 #3 0x00007ffff7fa65b9 in newterm () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 #4 0x00007ffff7fa2970 in initscr () from .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 #5 0x0000000000403dc2 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=0x7fffffffcea8) at main.c:574 This is due to a conflict between libtinfo.so and libtinfow.so. Both are linked into cscope: $ ldd $(which cscope) /bin/bash: .../lib/libtinfo.so.6: no version information available (required by /bin/bash) linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff5dbcb000) libncursesw.so.6 => .../lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007f435cc69000) libtinfo.so.6 => .../lib/libtinfo.so.6 (0x00007f435cc2c000) libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f435ca29000) libtinfow.so.6 => .../lib/libtinfow.so.6 (0x00007f435c9e8000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f435cca7000) Specifically linking libtinfow.so instead of libtinfo.so resolves the issue. All instances of '...' above represent the path to the installed ncurses for Spack.
