Hello I don't know if this has been asked before, as I searched the list and found nothing close to this problem but I'm hoping this is the right forum to ask.
Problem: I'm trying to upgrade my Kernel from 4.2.20 to 4.2.22. I am doing this the long way not through Dpkg or apt-get. When I type 'make menuconfig' I get the following: -------------------------------- /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' make[1]: *** [ncurses] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/scripts/lxdialog' make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2 ---------------------------- When I do 'dpkg -l libncurses5' I get: pi libncurses5 5.3.20030719-1 Shared libraries for terminal handling Does this mean that it is installed but has a problem? If I try to remove using apt-get it wants to remove 248 packages! Is there a way to solve this like adding a line in some file to point to the libraries? Also with the command 'dpkg -S libncurses5' the following is returned: libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5 libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5/copyright libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5/README.Debian libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5/changelog.gz libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5/changelog.Debian.gz libncurses5: /usr/share/doc/libncurses5/FAQ I did upgrade to 4.2.20 from 4.2.18 successfully but that was before I installed KDE3. Now that I installed KDE3 this is coming up. Any help or instructions to just go away would be really appreciated. Reaz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
