Hi.
In wdiff 0.5, I did this:
LIBS=-lncurses ./configure
make
and got an executable "wdiff" which used ncurses.
If I do the same with version 0.5.94, the executable is also linked
against ncurses, but apparently it uses none of its symbols.
LIBS=-lncurses ./configure
make
dpkg-shlibdeps src/wdiff
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libncurses.so.5 could be avoided if
"src/wdiff" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
(the dpkg-shlibdeps program is the one that debian uses to calculate Depends
automatically, this is how I discovered that there was something wrong).
I would suggest that configure and friends are modified so that
./configure --with-ncurses
just works.
Thanks.
