Applications requiring ncurses

patrikg:
I think, I saw in the ncursesw in the install stage they make a link to the old ncurses lib.
Maybe the tce don't do that.

Rich:
Hi t18
The current ncurses doesn't provide links to the old names.
I presume you are running TC16, so try:

--- Code: ---sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libncursesw.so /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libncursesw.so.6 /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so.6
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libncursesw.so.6.5 /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so.6.5
--- End code ---

t18:
Hi Rich,

I'm running TC 15.

The links seems to work but now the program requires libtinfo.so.6 (and maybe lm, please see the post below) that I can't find anywhere.

--- Quote from: Juanito on May 13, 2025, 09:23:30 AM ---Often you need to search the configure script to see how it tests for ncurses:

The include path often needs changing to /usr/local/include/ncursesw
The library test often needs changing to ncursesw, formw, etc
LIBS="-L /usr/local/lib lncursesw" sometimes helps

No configure, just 3 Makefiles in which there are the following references:

1)

--- Code: ---LDLIBS = -lncurses -ltinfo -lm
--- End code ---

2)

--- Code: ---LDLIBS = -lncurses -ltinfo
--- End code ---

3)

--- Code: ---LDLIBS=-lncurses -ltinfo
--- End code ---

Hi t18
libtinfo.so  was last available in  ncurses.tcz  from  TC10.
