Comment:
> These should be he only two packages that are doing this. I don't know why they don't simply compile them while building and then ship the compiled files, but I think the maintainers of these packages wouldn't have chosen this more complicated way of packaging terminfo without a reason.
My point is really just that if you dump the `.info` file inside of `/usr/share/terminfo`, then `toe -a` will complain to STDERR that it can't open the raw .info file.
```
toe: couldn't open terminfo file alacritty.info.
```
So I don't think it's normal to leave the .info files in the /usr/share/terminfo directory.
I'll open a new issue. Just seemed minor and didn't want to alert more people than necessary.
