[Bug 794820] [NEW] package libapache2-mod-php5 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.9 failed to install/upgrade:, Curses lost keyboard; Command line distro upgrade -> via Putty -> SSH -> Screen

[Will Bellman]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

Activity: 
Failed on NCurses dialog to replace/keep/diff previous version of php.ini...

Circumstances:
SSH'd into server, via PuTTY.
Running upgrade from a command line inside a "screen"'d shell.

Opinion: (skippable)

Easiest fix is probably to remove the NCurses dialog in favor of the raw
text prompt...  If needed...  This will probably affect a very very
small percentage of the Linux community...  and if you can't work around
an ncurses glitch you probably shouldn't be upgrading your distro via
SSH.
