Okay, it does all seem to be related to ncurses. I installed a limited amount into my home directory, and mutt built fine. Mutt can't recognize any terminal types when starting, but I only installed the libraries for testing. Doing a locate on 'ncurses', I found:
/usr/local/include/ncurses.h /usr/local/lib/libncurses++.a /usr/local/lib/libncurses.a /usr/local/lib/libncurses_g.a /usr/local/man/cat3/ncurses.3x /usr/local/man/man3/ncurses.3x Looking into ncurses.h, I see: /* $Id: curses.h.in,v 1.96 2000/09/16 16:11:01 tom Exp $ */ Looks like that is 5.2, yes? 5.0 on another system says: /* $Id: curses.h.in,v 1.85 1999/10/23 12:33:54 tom Exp $ */ Sorry if I'm totally off on that. But anyway, using '--with-curses=/usr/local' with configure, configure craps out, ending with: checking for waddnwstr in -lncurses... no checking for waddnwstr in -lncursesw... no checking for initscr in -lncurses... no checking for initscr... no checking for tgoto... no checking for tgoto in -ltermcap... yes checking for initscr in -lcursesX... no checking for initscr in -lcurses... no checking for initscr in -lncurses... (cached) no checking for initscr in -lxcurses... no checking for initscr in -ljcurses... no checking for initscr in -lunknown... no configure: error: no curses library found Am I missing something here, or should configure have found ncurses in /usr/local/lib and/or include? Thanks again for the help. -Ken
