Details:
Default configure/make/install of ncurses-5.7 builds separate libtinfo.a
library and places tgetent there instead of libncurses.a:
il...@tunis:~/xxx3 > objdump -t lib/libtinfo.a | grep getent
00000560 g F .text 00001130 tgetent
il...@tunis:~/xxx3 > objdump -t lib/libncurses.a | grep getent
il...@tunis:~/xxx3 >
This results in ./configure being unable to locate tgetent on HP-UX:
configure: checking for tgetent...
configure: checking libcurses...
configure: checking libtermcap...
configure: checking libtermlib...
configure: checking libncursesw...
configure: checking libncurses...
configure: error: !!! no tgetent - no screen
I suggest checking for -ltinfo too (patch is attached)
