Not set, I suppose.

Here (with cowbuilder) it fails differently, as TERM is set but
unknown:

adt-run [17:35:21]: test command1: /usr/share/pkg-perl-autopkgtest/runner build-deps
adt-run [17:35:21]: test command1: [-----------------------
Nothing to prove, skipping.

adt-run [17:35:21]: test command1:  - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - -
command1             FAIL stderr: tput: unknown terminal "rxvt-unicode-256color"
adt-run [17:35:21]: test command1:  - - - - - - - - - - stderr - - - - - - - - - -
tput: unknown terminal "rxvt-unicode-256color"


Looks like we need a different solution to cover both cases; looking
the code, tput is only called if Term::Size is not found.

And indeed, adding libterm-size-perl to B-D-I gets rid of the the
tput (call and) warning.
