Well, if currently you are only considering of importing packages
which sup depends on, and under the current condition that
ruby-ncurses is already in Fedora, then this package is not needed
even for 0.10.2 (as far I checked the source code)

For example sup-0.10.2/bin/sup contains:
-------------------------------------------------------
     5  no_ncursesw = false
     6  begin
     7    require 'ncursesw'
     8  rescue LoadError
     9    require 'ncurses'
    10    no_ncursesw = true
    11  end
-------------------------------------------------------
so sup falls back to using ncurses if ncursesw is not found.

So if you are not interested in maintaining ncursesw once
sup 0.11 is released, currently I am against importing this
package into Fedora.
