ncurses - Is the following a bug in ncurses?



Hello All,

I compiled, installed and ran le v1.4.1 (this version not yet debian) and got
the error message in the forwarded message and also the response from the le
author.

I don't know if this is an ncurses problem or not.

Regards,

Victor

This message says it all. Your ncurses library is not properly configured.
Try to ask Debian team about this, or compile a recent ncurses snapshot
which has the configuration bug fixed. (The bug did not appear with libc5)

Probably I should have built this check in configure script, so it would be
less confusing.

   Alexander.
