Re: LYNX-DEV Compiling lynx 2-6 under Linux 2.0.26 (fwd)

Do you have a /usr/include/ncurses directory?
If you don't have the above directory but you do
have a ncurses.h file somewhere, you could create
the above directory and put a copy of ncurses.h there
although you'll probably need more than the ncurses.h
file, if you had the above directory there would be
a few other files there also.

Do you have a ncurses.h file anywhere?
Do you have a curses.h file? in /usr/include.
If you want to do a make lynx-ncurses you need to have libncurses.so.?
and the include file 'ncurses.h' for it somewhere, either in
/usr/include/ncurses or /usr/include.
If lynx is looking for curses.h but all you have is ncurses.h
make a link to it 'ln -s ncurses.h curses.h'
If you just have a curses.h file it won't work, you need a ncurses.h
file.

Just change that line in LYCurses.h line 37 to <ncurses.h> if
you have it in /usr/include.
