Ticket #13250 (closed defect: fixed)
news/tin fails to handle SIGWINCH

Description
resizing the Apple Terminal window does not update tin's understading about the window size. The problem is quite astonishing as mutt works without problems. Linking mutt against ncurses built from the MacPorts system does not resolve the problem either allthough ncurses was compiled with --enable-sigwinch.
I am using Mac OS X 10.4, the lastest MacPorts and XCode 2.4.1

Shouldn't you contact upstream directly?

I've contacted upstream, too. The problem might be related to ncurses in conjunction with Mac OS X. I try to find out more details.

The workaround was developed by Thomas E. Dickey. I suggest adding the patch to the Portfile until the upstream configure script is fixed.

Is this patch still needed now that tin is at version 1.8.3?

I've built a fresh version using the +curses switch and without. However SIGWINCH still doesn't work. So the patch is still required.
