1. How do I get pkgsrc/www/lynx to compile using -ncurses instead of the native curses library? I tried setting various options in /etc/mk.conf, but it looks like it really wants to compile using the native curses library. I tried changing options.mk in the pkgsrc directory, but I apparently don't fully understand the maze of pkgsrc Makefiles.
I'm not a pkgsrc expert either, but, have a look at: For ncurses: Makefile.common http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/devel/ncurses/Makefile.common?rev=1.47&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup Add: CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-termcap For lynx: Makefile http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/www/lynx/Makefile?rev=1.137&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup Set SCREENTYPE to ncursesw in /etc/mk.conf? I usually build both ncurses and lynx on my own using the ./configure; make; make install idiom: ncurses: 1.
