Hello Martin, For some reasons, the "./configure" isn't able to catch the informations needed (perhaps not a standard path). Could you find the full path of the relevant librairies (use 'find / -name libncurses\*') and then use the following environment variables : "LDFLAGS" (linker flags, e.g. -L\ if you have libraries in a nonstandard directory \) "CPPFLAGS" (C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I\ if you have               headers in a nonstandard directory \) With regards, Jean-Philippe. ---

Please install the -devel packages as well, and let us know how it goes. ---
