What is unclear to me is how to build debug shared libraries.
libncurses_g.so

ncurses' normal and debug libraries are both static.
That's mentioned in the INSTALL file:

    --with-debug
Generate debug-libraries (default).  These are named by adding "_g" to the root, e.g., libncurses_g.a

Hello,

I would like to package ncurses for conan, a C/C++ package manager.
This manager provides development packages for developers.
Developers may enable or disable certain options: such as enabling debug and having static or shared libraries.

Current script is available at https://github.com/madebr/conan-ncurses

My question goes about the configuration options:
What configure options must I provide?

+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+
| Shared  |  Debug  |   Options                              |
+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+
|  false  |  false  |  --without-shared --without-cxx-shared |
|         |         |  --without-debug --without-normal      |
+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+
|  false  |  true   |  --without-shared --without-cxx-shared |
|         |         |  --with-debug --without-normal         |
+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+
|  true   |  false  |  --with-shared --with-cxx-shared       |
|         |         |  --without-debug --without-normal      |
+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+
|  true   |  true   |  --with-shared --with-cxx-shared       |
|         |         |  --with-debug --without-normal         |
+---------+---------+----------------------------------------+

Is this correct?
Because the lib folder for Shared=true and Debug=True contains both static and shared libraries.
