It seems strange. I have '/usr/include/ncurses.h' and the thing seems to
find it and then not find it:
configure:5942: checking ncurses.h usability
configure:5942: gcc -c -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -O2 conftest.c >&5
configure:5942: $? = 0
configure:5942: result: yes
configure:5942: checking ncurses.h presence
configure:5942: gcc -E conftest.c
configure:5942: $? = 0
configure:5942: result: yes
configure:5942: checking for ncurses.h
configure:5942: result: yes
configure:5942: checking ncursesw/ncurses.h usability
configure:5942: gcc -c -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -O2 conftest.c >&5
conftest.c:108:30: fatal error: ncursesw/ncurses.h: No such file or
directory
2$ ./configure --with-term-lib
... shows:
configure: error: "No terminal handling library was found on your system.
This is probably a library called 'curses' or 'ncurses'. You may
need to install a package called 'curses-devel' or 'ncurses-devel' on your
system."
See `config.log' for more details
... but all these are installed:
i libncurses5 - shared libraries for terminal
handling
i libncurses5-dev - developer's libraries for ncurses
i libncursesw5 - shared libraries for terminal
handling (wi
i ncurses-base - basic terminal type definitions
i ncurses-bin - terminal-related programs and man
pages
i ncurses-term - additional terminal type definitions
... and I have these:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libncurses.so
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libncurses.so.5
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libncurses.so.5.9
I finally installed 'libncursesw5-dev' and all is well. Sheesh, seems
'libncurses5-dev'
doesn't cut it.
