Ping. This is still an issue and it looks like this patch fell through
the cracks!
Thanks,

Kernel v4.14 and newer contain the following in their Makefile:
HOST_LFS_LDFLAGS := $(shell getconf LFS_LDFLAGS)
HOSTLDFLAGS := $(HOST_LFS_LDFLAGS)
This breaks our menuconfig, because it can no longer find ncurses if its
not on the host machine. This can be seen in linux-yocto-dev, for
example:
[clsulliv@clsulliv build]$ bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig
GEN ./Makefile
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/mconf
/home/clsulliv/yocto/poky/build/tmp/hosttools/ld: cannot find -lncurses
/home/clsulliv/yocto/poky/build/tmp/hosttools/ld: cannot find -ltinfo

Press any key to continue...
Fix this by setting HOSTLDFLAGS to ${BUILD_LDFLAGS} in our
'make menuconfig' command.
