Can't find -lncurses
After finally getting my Indy running what I believe to be the latest
version of Debian, I set up a few things using tasksel and then tried to
compile pine/pico. It seemed to work, but then at the last linking stage,
ld complained it could not find -lncurses. I checked around and sure
enough, the lib was in /lib, but it just wasn't being found. I decided to
just edit the makefile and link in the .so file instead, which worked, and
now pine works fine... However, I'd really like to know why that didn't
work. I checked /etc/ld.so.conf and it didn't have /lib, but even adding
it there didn't seem to help!
So yeah, any thoughts?
