I just had the same exact error two days ago.
td> checking for termcap functions library... checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no td> checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no td> checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no td> configure: error: No curses/termcap library found <B>When you installed your RH system, did you install the curses/termcap development tools? </B> Some packages are split into runtime and development kits, so people who aren't interested in development don't need to waste the diskspace. The libtermcap libraries are in the libtermcap-devel package: $ rpm -ql libtermcap-devel /usr/include/termcap.h /usr/lib/libtermcap.a /usr/lib/libtermcap.so Make sure that package is installed. You'll also need the ncurses package, of course, but you probably already have that (so many things depend on it). The Key was I was missing the libtermcap-devel files. So download them, and this solved the problem.
