Thanks for your help on this mate, appriciate it! I get what you mean about the build root, but thats valid as far as I can tell. Here's a portion of the libncurses.la file :
# The name that we can dlopen(3). dlname='libncurses.so.5' # Names of this library. library_names='libncurses.so.5.0.4 libncurses.so.5 libncurses.so' # The name of the static archive. old_library='libncurses.a' # Linker flags that can not go in dependency_libs. inherited_linker_flags='' # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' -L/home/bon/OE/angstrom-tmp/work/armv5te-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/ncurses-5.4-r15/ncurses-5.4/lib' # Names of additional weak libraries provided by this library weak_library_names='' # Version information for libncurses. current=5 age=0 revision=4 # Is this an already installed library? installed=no # Should we warn about portability when linking against -modules? shouldnotlink=no # Files to dlopen/dlpreopen dlopen='' dlpreopen='' # Directory that this library needs to be installed in: libdir='/usr/lib' The libdir is fine as far as I can tell, and looking at the dependency libs, they match other .la files that get thru the sanity check. Is there not a log file related to the build that I can search in for more specific errors? Just failing a sanity check doesn't really help me much in finding out whats going wrong!
