Hi. I ran ./configure for gdb-5.0 and it failed. I was going
to submit a bug report but I thought maybe someone here could tell my if
my problem is something that's already known or something that I did
wrong.
The configuration script was configuring gdb and it printed the
messages:
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... (cached) no
checking for tgetent in -lHcurses... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... (cached) no
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... (cached) no
checking for tgetent in -lterminfo... no
configure: error: Could not find a term library
Configure in /root/gdb-5.0/gdb failed, exiting.
Does this mean I just don't have a graphical library (e.g.
ncurses) that gdb requires and I can just install one from my redhat cd?
Does this mean I'm doing something else wrong and there is a
simple fix for it?
Should I send a bug report on this?
I'm running redhat with kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on a i586-pc-linux-gnu
host.
Thanks,
Adam.
