-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 While you will need gcc obviously, or you will not be able to compile anything, look also for a termcap-devel package, or similar. In fact, look for anything with term in the name that might give you a clue.
My machine, RHEL4, has these libraries: termcap-5.4-3 libtermcap-devel-2.0.8-39 libtermcap-2.0.8-39 ...but you said you don't have those in your list. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - User Support Spec.
