RPM shows that ncurses-5.2-262 is installed, but when I try to configure the kernel source with "make menuconfig", it complains that it can't find ncurses. "make xconfig" works fine, I'm compiling as we speak.
Where should I look to find the problem? SuSE 8.0, stock kernel.
Look in /lib and see what you have for libncurses. For instance if you have libncurses.so.5.2 make a symlink to it so you have libncurses.so.5 and even a symlink for libncurses.so pointing to it. Some programs are fussy, and they won't search for a usable alternative. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
