Unknown terminal 'xterm-256color'
Keep getting a message in Terminal saying
tput: unknown terminal "xterm-256color"
This message typically appears when running homebrew
, and while I can swear it's popped up on other places, I can't precisely remember. echo $TERM
outputs xterm-256color
. I'm not the best at diagnosing Terminal problems, so any help is greatly appreciated.
(I know this may be an issue when SSHing to remote servers that don't support xterm-256color, but in this case I'm just concerned about my actual system.)
Nevermind, answered my own question. Stackoverflow had a post that I missed that described how the /usr/share/terminfo folder can get corrupted. Downloaded a replacement from that post, and the error message went away.
