It doesn't work. I can't understand, because I've got installed the
libncurses5 library in /lib and /usr/lib.
I can find out the definition of tgetent. It is provided by ncursesw (wide
character support) package. Why configure cannot?
matt@madre:/usr/include/ncursesw$ grep -n 'tgetent' *.h
termcap.h:65:extern NCURSES_EXPORT(int) tgetent (char *, const char *);
term.h:770:/* termcap database emulation (XPG4 uses const only for 2nd param
of tgetent) */
term.h:774:extern NCURSES_EXPORT(int) tgetent (char *, const char *);
However, it seems that curses.h does not contain that definition. Is that the
problem?
Thanks!
