I still think we don't need to support anything other than ncurses here, so I'd be happy to take a patch that cleans this up and uses pkg-config.

Yes, pkg-config would have caught it: $ pkg-config --libs ncurses -lncursesw -ltinfo I noticed in the meantime, that the package maintainer made a commit, which fixes the problem too: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/?h=packages/ncurses=987faeb8442d44e76a7a58642e8e6432eb220c25 Thanks, Clemens ___ ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de

Strange. I have binutils 2.29.1-6 and ncurses 6.0+20170902-1 here on Debian and it works just fine :-/. But: $ cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libncurses.so INPUT(libncurses.so.5 -ltinfo) I guess this is different for you... > I could work around it by adding -ltinfo to LDFLAGS in the PTXdist > Makefile. We have some complex stuff in configure.ac to detect the curses library. Maybe we should just require ncurses and use pkg-config.
