It's part of Tk. Install tk8.3 or equivalent. > make -C scripts/lxdialog all > make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20/scripts/lxdialog' > /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > > >> Unable to find the Ncurses libraries. > >> > >> You must have Ncurses installed in order > >> to use 'make menuconfig' I believe I may have stumbled across this before, a long time ago, but it seemed to go away - not sure whether it's a kernel build system bug or ld.so problem, or something else again. Try running ldconfig again. If that fails, try: (cd /lib && ln -s libncurses.so.5 libncurses.so) Which is something of a hack, but did make the problem go away for me. [ I have no such symlink now, and it all seems to work for me - ymmv ]
