If invoked with php 7.4 on a up2date Drupal 7 installation, drush
complains with a deprecation warning, that swallows all legit output:
> drush uli
Deprecated function: Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is [error]
deprecated in include_once() (line 20 of
/var/www/…/htdocs/includes/file.phar.inc).
Use php7.3 when invoking drush.
All the programs provided by ncurses were being installed to the $dev
output, but several of them are intended for runtime use, e.g. to
operate on the running terminal. These user-facing programs are moved to
the $bin output.
Several packages referred to "${ncurses}/bin" or "${ncurses.dev}/bin" at
runtime; these paths are also updated to refer to "${ncurses.bin}/bin".
