Tonight I attempted to build another system, using jhalfs (trunk, newly checked out), and had some trouble. Firstly it required libncurses.so.5, which isn't a part of the standard build. But building it using the note in LFS Chapt 6.20 fixed that. But next jhalfs required libtinfo.so.5 (menu/mconf: error while loading shared libraries libtinfo.so.5 ... no such file). There is no libtinfo.so on the system. Have I missed installing it somewhere? I cannot find it in either LFS or BLFS index. Thanks for any advice Slainte Gordon Did you try to create symlink libtinfo.so.5 -> libncurses.soTried that, but the resulting menu was unusable (using the wrong character set) whereas menuconfig for the kernel works fine.
It looks like you have a version of mconf compiled against lib{ncurses,tinfo}.so.5, and somehow, those librairies were replaced by the .6 ones at some point. I'd suggest recompiling mconf:
