Hi folks,
With the recent knowledge that Texlive's binary (as installed by
'install-tl-unix') seems to use the non-wide-character libraries in
ncurses5 format, I was wondering if we could get this added to ALFS. The
instructions are already in LFS, in 6.24:
make distclean
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--with-shared \
--without-normal \
--without-debug \
--without-cxx-binding \
--with-abi-version=5
make sources libs
cp -av lib/lib*.so.5* /usr/lib
I think that as a result, an option should be added to it's menu system
to check whether you want these or not (maybe a disclaimer in the HELP
section can be put in regarding 'install-tl-unix' being one of the only
known consumers?).
Thank you,
Douglas R. Reno
