I'm trying to build pinfo 0.6.10 in 64-bit. The configure script halts, claiming "curses is not usable". The command that fails is:
gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2 -I/usr/include -L/usr/lib -lncursesw conftest.c and this fails because the order of the arguments is wrong. The command should be gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2 -I/usr/include conftest.c -L/usr/lib -lncursesw and that succeeds. So my question is really an autoconf question: How can I tell autoconf to fix the order of the compiler arguments? My autoconf knowledge is pretty thin I'm afraid. I can provide the configure.ac script if that would be helpful. The source is old - I think the last real update was in 2007, with a small update posted in 2010.
