This does not look like something that has something to do with GCC: apart from “may be used uninitialized” warnings there are only “undefined reference” errors which indicate that your system has no (not true: configure found it) or incompatible (most likely outdated) ncurses library. First try to supply to configure script something other then --with-tlib=ncurses: search for tlibs in src/configure.ac for a list, but guess better start with absent --with-tlib argument and check whether automatic detection succeeds. > > Thanks for your time, > Brenton > > On 9 January 2017 at 00:38, Brenton Horne <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I maintain Vim packages in my Open Build Service home project, for example >> here are the packaging files I use to build it for CentOS/Fedora/Scientific >> Linux https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:fusion809/vim-redhat.
