Reformatted excerpts from Nick Guenther's message of 2008-11-26: > The problem here is that you are asking for libc.so.6 which OpenBSD > doesn't have (on my 4.3 system I see ["/usr/lib/libc.so.41.0", > "/usr/lib/libc.so.43.0"]).
Someone else just reported this problem too. I wonder whether the best solution is your patch (remove the .6) or the patch I was thinking of, where we special-case BSD to look for libc.so.43. Does anyone have any suggestions? > I installed the OpenBSD ruby-ncurses package instead and hoped all was > well. I am just learning Ruby, but the fact that sup gets past > `require 'ncurses'` means that ncurses should be installed right? I... think so. What's your TERM environment variable set to? Do other (color!) ncurses programs work? > form_wrap.c: In function `field_check': > form_wrap.c:1147: error: `true' undeclared (first use in this function) Do you have both ncurses and ruby development libraries installed?

Yeah, I would ignore the gem issue for now. I suspect that at this point it's a matter of tricking the 1970's technology that is ncurses into displaying color on your particular environment, by trying different TERMs and terminal emulators. -- William <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
