Thank you very much for your reply. Yes, the machine is running BSD. uname -srp ==>> NetBSD 7.0.2 i386
The commands for building are: % gzip -dc screen-4.6.2.tar.gz | tar xf - % cd screen-4.6.2 % ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-socket-dir=/usr/local/screens \ --enable-colors256 --enable-use-locale I have tried using both /usr/bin/make and GNU make 4.2. With BSD `make` the build stops almost immediately with: make: "/usr/local/src/screen-4.6.2/Makefile" line 29: Missing dependency operato r make: "/usr/local/src/screen-4.6.2/Makefile" line 31: Need an operator make: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue make: stopped in /usr/local/src/screen-4.6.2 I looked at lines 29 and 31 of the Makefile, but nothing seemed wrong to me, although I have no knowledge of how a Makefile should look. With GNU make I get the errors I posted in my previous mail. I also tried setting environment variables after running the configure script and before typing (g)make % setenv CPPFLAGS "-I/usr/local/include" % setenv LDFLAGS "-L/usr/local/lib" % setenv LIBS "-lncursesw" , but there was no difference in the outcome, i.e., exactly the same errors.
