Greetings,
I'm at LFS version 7.10, section 5.32. Texinfo-6.1
The problem I'm having is during the configuration:
configure: WARNING: Could not find a terminal library among tinfo
ncurses curses termlib termcap terminfo
configure: WARNING: The programs from `info' directory will not be built.
Deviations from the book:
1) I'm building a multilib LFS 7.10 system based (loosely) on CLFS
Version 3.0.0-SYSVINIT-x86_64-Multilib.
Host system:
Second generation multilib (B)LFS 7.7, also based on CLFS.
Package Configuration:
PERL=/usr/bin/perl \
./configure \
--prefix=/tools \
--libdir=/tools/lib64 \
--build=${CLFS_HOST} \
--host=${CLFS_TARGET}
Environment:
lfs:/mnt/clfs/sources/texinfo-6.1$ env
AS=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-as
AR=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-ar
CLFS_TARGET32=i686-pc-linux-gnu
CLFS_HOST=x86_64-cross-linux-gnu

PS1=\u:\w\$

SHLVL=1
HOME=/home/lfs
RANLIB=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-ranlib
CC=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -m64
_=/tools/bin/env
Other observations:
1) If I do 'ln -sv /tools/lib64/libncursesw.so.6.0
/tools/lib64/libncurses.so' the configure script won't complain, but the
build fails (probably because libncursesw is not binary compatible with
libncurses, and texinfo still requires the latter).
2) I don't believe I can install the regular and wide-character versions
side by side, can I? The header files are different, and one would
overwrite the other...
Bottom Line:
I presume it is possible to build Textinfo-6.1 against wide-character
Ncurses 6.0, since it's in the book and all. I feel like I'm missing
something very obvious here... Has anyone else experienced this issue?
I'll be happy to try anything, and provide any output that might be helpful.
Thank you for your time,
Roger
