** Building terminfo database, please wait...
Running tic to install /home/lxm/python3-android-master/build/sysroot/usr/share/terminfo ...

    You may see messages regarding extended capabilities, e.g., AX.
    These are extended terminal capabilities which are compiled
    using
            tic -x
    If you have ncurses 4.2 applications, you should read the INSTALL
    document, and install the terminfo without the -x option.

Hi, could you check whether `tic -V` prints a recently enough version or not? (e.g., 6.1.YYYYmmdd) If not you may want to tweak $PATH.

It is ncurses 6.1.20180127

[yan12125]

Hmm 6.1.20180127 should work. Anyway, could you try ncurses 6.1.20190121 or newer? It might still be broken, but it should provide better error messages. Instead of the current message:

"terminfo.tmp", line 4775, terminal 'xterm-16color': error writing /home/lxm/python3-android-master/build/sysroot/usr/share/terminfo/x/xterm-16color

6.1.20190121 or newer will give a mesage like this:

"terminfo.tmp", line 4775, terminal 'xterm-16color': error writing /home/lxm/python3-android-master/build/sysroot/usr/share/terminfo/x/xterm-16color: (reason for the failure)

I created a docker image for easier setup of the build environment: https://github.com/yan12125/python3-android#build-using-docker.

If you found how to build this repository on CentOS 7 natively (i.e., without docker), feel free to propose it.
