Unhappy Problem in Chapter 5.13. Ncurses-5.5


Hello EveryOne I have a Problem in Chapter 5.13.Ncurses-5.5 I am using LFS Live CD x86-6.2 as a Host System so, Please tell me what can i do next.
Thanx


[code]:
** Building terminfo database, please wait...
Running tic to install /tools/share/terminfo ...

You may see messages regarding extended capabilities, e.g., A X.
These are extended terminal capabilities which are compiled
using
tic -x
If you have ncurses 4.2 applications, you should read the INS TALL
document, and install the terminfo without the -x option.

sh: error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.5: cannot op en shared object file: No such file or directory
? tic could not build /tools/share/terminfo
make[1]: *** [install.data] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/ncureses/ncurses-5.5/mis c'
make: *** [install] Error 2

Exactly what command did you run to get that output - did you have the configure command typed exactly as specified?

I am getting the the same error and my configure command was type correctly
./configure --prefix=/tools --with-shared --without-debug --without-ada --enable-overwrite

Then when i run the make install command i get the error from above.

I have read in this post that some people get a problem, which looks a lot like this, with the SHLIB variable, which is used in line 114 of the run_tic.sh script. Funny thing is that I did not get this issue and I too have been using the liveCD as a host system.
In any case, the problem was then solved by removing $SHLIB from line 114, but he did not know why this solves it. And, neither do I....

Maybe as a last resort?

Well i feel like an idiot. this problem for me was solved when i when back through the book and followed the instructions to create the LFS user. I did everything as root at first using the LiveCD. Even if you are using the Live CD you must create the LFS user or things are not linked right.
