By intention. This way they will get fixed *apropriately*.
I could also fix them, but I�d need the hardware to test it or
somebody reliable for remote-diagnostics.  However, it�s very much
easier for the developers of these drivers to fix the interface than
for me.

Obviously the linker wasn�t told to link against the ncurses library.
This is either a problem with the configure script or with your system.
I suspect the latter one since the original packages must have the same
problem and nobody else complained. Add -lncurses to the command line
and it will probably work.

You have to set a route using axparms or via the ax25 routing deamon.
This not really a bug, I will change this behaviour of call, but there
are other things to do which have priority.

I suspect that you still had the parport and serial device drivers
loaded
or some hardware problem. If not please investigate and send patches.

Perhaps you could be more specific here.
