Dear zsh developers,

 I am having trouble getting the zsh-4.0.4 to compile on my Linux 7.2
box.  As root I have tried compiling it both in /root or in my user
directory in /home; in both cases it fails to compile with an Error 1
because of undefined references in function init_term of init.o and
tsetcap in prompt.o.  In both cases in directory zsh-4.0.4 I run
./configure and then make.  It is in running 'make' that I get the Error
1 etc.

        Thanks, awooley@exeter.edu

You'll need to have either libtermcap or ncurses installed before
building zsh.

Specifically you need development RPMs. I do not know what do you mean
under "Linux 7.2" but both Mandrake and RedHat do have separate runtime
and development RPMs (and AFAIK SuSE as well; any distro else that had
7.2 version?)

Check for package named like ncurses-devel or libncurses-devel or
libncurses*-devel (Mandrake switched to versioned libraries at some
point so it may be libncurse5-devel e.g.). Likewise for termcap.
