Thank both Ken and Chris for your help. It seems that I solved the problem
about Inetutils failing at building step.
Which was caused by my mistake, as I supposed (:P).
The Chris' suggestion to check for ncurses and readline with
"ls -l {,/usr}/lib/*curses*"
"ls -l {,/usr}/lib/*readline*"
helped me discovering that I committed a typo in linking some of the readline
libraries.
Relinking them correctly fixed the inetutils compilation failure.
<ken> I think you haven't quite grasped how configure scripts operate!
err.. yes, you're right! It seems so!

Anyway (since I'm here :P) I'm now at Perl chapter.
I'm having 3 failures in the testsuite, one of which (../lib/Net/hostent.t) is
surely caused
by another typo I committed in creating the etc/hosts filename. I'm right now
going to fix it.
The others 2 are:
ext/IPC/SysV/t/ipcsysv........................................# cannot
proceed: semget() error:
# Looks like you planned 17 tests but ran 16.
FAILED--expected 17 tests, saw 16
ext/Sys/Syslog/t/syslog.......................................FAILED at test
176
Further investigations (via "setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH `pwd`; cd t; ./perl harness"
as suggested by the test result itself) fixed the ipcsysv.t error but not the
syslog.t one:
../ext/Sys/Syslog/t/syslog.......................................
# Failed test 'setlogsock() should return true: '''
# at ../ext/Sys/Syslog/t/syslog.t line 204.
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 199.
dubious
Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
DIED. FAILED test 176
If you tell me that this is a critical failure which strictly need to be fixed,
then I'll have to investigate deeply about the causes,
otherwise I'd install perl as it is. Only 1 failed test seems to me a good
result.
Thanks again for both help and explanations!
