In trying to build emacs (9.2-stable) (ports svn as of this morning, but one from a few weeks ago does this too) I get the following:
checking for posix_openpt... yes checking for library containing tputs... no configure: error: The required function `tputs' was not found in any library. The following libraries were tried (in order): libtinfo, libncurses, libterminfo, libtermcap, libcurses Please try installing whichever of these libraries is most appropriate for your system, together with its header files. For example, a libncurses-dev(el) or similar package. ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Please report the problem to ash...@freebsd.org [maintainer] and attach the "/e/var/portbld/usr/ports/editors/emacs/work/emacs-24.3/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. a /usr/local/sbin/pkg-static info -g -Ea). *** [do-configure] Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/editors/emacs. *** [stage] Error code 1 Given that ncurses is in the base system, and just in case I installed the port ncurses also, and this still happens. Something is wrong in ./configure. (I notice that the "for example" references redhat :-) -- Pete _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
