Hi,
I've installed gdb 5.3 on a Solaris 2.8 machine by running:
./configure
./make
./make install
No errors were encountered during any of these runs. I set my CC to gcc,
then ran gdb as root and received the error:
ld.so.1: gdb: fatal: libncurses.so.5: open failed: No such file or
directory
Killed
I don't have the libncurses.so.5, and can't find it for Solaris, only Linux.
I searched the gdb web site, but didn't see anything that says what to do
about this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you,
