error when compile lua 5.3.3

i try to compile lua 5.3.3 using slackbuild with changed version and have this error:

how to fix it?

libreadline is failing to find certain functions from other libraries. tgoto and several others come from termcap. tputs is from ncurses. You should have both of these but maybe not in the right place.

Just pass "-ncurses" in LDFLAGS. For completeness, this is the core of my slackbuild:

Code:

sed -i "s|/usr/local|/usr|" src/luaconf.h

sed -i "s|lib/lua|lib64/lua|" src/luaconf.h

sed -i "s|/usr/local|/usr|" etc/lua.pc

sed -i "s|prefix}/lib|prefix}/lib64|g" etc/lua.pc



make linux CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS \$(MYCFLAGS)" LDFLAGS="-lncurses" INSTALL_TOP=/usr INSTALL_LIB=/usr/lib64 INSTALL_LMOD=/usr/share/lua/5.3 INSTALL_CMOD=/usr/lib64/lua/5.3 || exit 1

make linux install CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS \$(MYCFLAGS)" LDFLAGS="-lncurses" INSTALL_TOP=$PKG/usr INSTALL_LIB=$PKG/usr/lib64 INSTALL_LMOD=$PKG/usr/share/lua/5.3 INSTALL_CMOD=$PKG/usr/lib64/lua/5.3 || exit 1



mkdir -p shared

cd shared

  ar -x $PKG/usr/lib64/liblua.a

  gcc -ldl -lreadline -lhistory -lncurses -lm -shared *.o -o liblua.so.$VERSION

  cp -a liblua.so.$VERSION $PKG/usr/lib64

  ( cd $PKG/usr/lib64

    ln -s liblua.so.$VERSION liblua.so.5.1

    ln -s liblua.so.$VERSION liblua.so.5

    ln -s liblua.so.$VERSION liblua.so

  )

cd ..

thanks a lot. it helped
