<para><userinput>--with-shared:</userinput> This enables the build of the
|
|
shared ncurses library files.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>--disable-termcap:</userinput> Disabled the compilation of
|
|
termcap fall back support.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>cd /lib && mv *.a /usr/lib :</userinput> This
|
|
moves all of the static ncurses library files from /lib to /usr/lib.
|
|
/lib should only contain the shared files which are essential to the
|
|
system when /usr may not be mounted.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>chmod 755 *.5.2:</userinput> Shared libraries should be
|
|
executable. Ncurses install routine doesn't set the permissions
|
|
properly so we do it manually instead.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>ln -sf libncurses.a libcurses.a:</userinput> Some
|
|
programs try to link using -lcurses instead of -lncurses. This symlink
|
|
ensures that such programs will link without errors.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>ln -sf ../../lib/libncurses.so etc:</userinput> These
|
|
links are created because if they aren't, the linker will not find the
|
|
dynamic libraries when linking and so link all programs with the static
|
|
versions.</para>
