Hi all, I've been able to temporarily do: export LDFLAGS=-lncurses to make the error messages go away, and to build and install successfully. The problem now is, I get segfault. I'll be trying to use gdb to see what's wrong, although it looks quite involved.
It seems that I could've also done export LDFLAGS=-ltermcap but that would've been the same thing, because libtermcap was just a symlink to ncurses. Any suggestions?
