[SOLVED] [LFS 7.4] Problem with Psmisc-22.20 configuration

fedifedi · 10-22-2013, 11:02 AM

Hi there,
i've got a problem when I run this command, during the install of Psmisc-22.20:

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr

I get this error:

Code:

configure:error:Cannot find tinfo, ncures or termcap libraries

Any suggestions?

Did you skip 6.21. Ncurses-5.9? Or installed it in a different location (prefix mishap)?

If you're not sure check 6.21.2. Contents of Ncurses for locations of the files that should be installed.

Nope, I didn't skip that paragraph.
How can I fix that?
Can I rebuild Ncurses-5.9 and retry to install Psmisc-22.20?

If you checked and everything is present at the expected locations then re-installing Ncurses seems pointless.

There's no technical reason that stops you from redoing 6.21, though.

Do the lines leading up to the error show anything?

Psmisc depends on the following:

Bash, Binutils, Coreutils, GCC, Gettext, Glibc, Grep, Make, Ncurses, and Sed

Did you install each of these?

Ok, I've rebuild Ncurses-5.9 and the errors will gone!
I don't know why exactly, but now Psmisc-22.20 is compiled without errors!

Thank you guys for the help!
