PDCurses package doesn't work from version 4 #5994

Hello.

I'm using Lem editor on Windows.

It is Common Lisp application and using cl-charms library to interface with PDCurses.

It worked well until mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-pdcurses 3.8-1 . (with mintty 3.0.6-1 and winpty 0.4.3-1)

But, it was broken from mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-pdcurses 4.1.0-3 . (something new window is displayed)

I checked PKGBUILD file and found that it was changed from wmcbrine/PDCurses (version 3.8) to Bill-Gray/PDCurses (version 4.0).

Bill-Gray/PDCurses seems to be a fork of wmcbrine/PDCurses and incompatible with original.

Please revert PDCurses package to version 3.8 , or separate two PDCurses to different packages.

I came here looking for a fix to the Lem issue. Any progress in diagnosing the problem? Could we get separate packaging of the two systems until it is resolved upstream?

Bumping. Perhaps there are some workarounds?
