Hey Ervin, Tom, and the gang; re: the "discussion 72"
I've made SOME progress....AND I can clearly state that installing the libtinfo does NOT help by itself ! Nor does it help with any of the suggested changes in the "./configure ....." invocation. And yeah it is related to upstream issues with pkg-config and so forth. so: I have completed a successful test build of tlf-git by making it dependent on a new package called lib_tlf. SImple enough and this way I can get on with things. ** I have attached that to here. notes: - I am not sure this is the best fix...as a test run of tlf looked/seemed odd....that could be due to not actually going through a normal/proper config or something more problematic. i.e. I do nit use tlf so I am not sure what to expect. (The video and colors seem fb.) i.e. ***** I need to compare versions a bit first, before I cna talk more completely about there being any other &/or remaining issues. tnxs fer the clues om's es vy 73 de bob w9ya On Thu, Jan 26, 2017 at 8:31 AM, w9ya <w...@qrparci.net> wrote: > Hey Ervin and the gang; > > Please hold off on installing Archlinux....(its a major amount of work > actually). > > I'd like to try the solution(s) in the link for "discussion 72" first. > > Tnxs om's es vy 73 de bob w9ya > > On Thu, Jan 26, 2017 at 3:02 AM, Ervin Hegedüs <airw...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Hi Bob, >> >> On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 08:09:51PM -0700, w9ya wrote: >>> Hey all; >>> >>> I *am* able to successfully compile and package v. 1.2.2 but cannot >>> compile either 1.2.3 or 1.2.4.5.
