You need to look in config.log for the reason this failed. OSX (all versions) uses ncurses, but curses is symlinked to that also, so one of them at least should be found. Works for me.

Since you are building from source, I expect you will have a linking problem during compilation with libGL.

Also, which Mac processor - PPC or Intel?

Dear Sir,

I am now trying to reinstall 6.3.0RC1 from  source. Thank you for your
well documentation on this.
And this is snippet of ./configure :
==================
checking for curses.h... yes
checking curses.h WINDOW structure component... _maxy
checking for initscr in -lncurses... no
checking for initscr in -lcurses... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate curses library.
==================
It is strange since I try in different mac using Tiger, the
configuration run well.
Is the curses library must be pre-installed on Leopard? If it is not
found, do I have to change the path on .bashrc or something?
I am sorry for this newbie question, I am barely know Unix environment.
Thank you for your kind attention,
