#13292: vim fails to configure, tgetent() not found -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: griff.rees@gmail.com | Owner: raimue@macports.org Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.5.0 Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Changes (by ian_purvis@mac.com): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: worksforme => Comment: I have this issue on my machine as well (core2duo macbook, leopard), but only if I specify the +ruby variant: {{{ Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_editors_vim/work/vim71" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --enable-gui=no --without-x --disable- gpm --disable-nls --mandir=/opt/local/share/man --with-tlib=ncurses --enable-multibyte --enable-rubyinterp " returned error 1 }}} and: {{{ checking --with-tlib argument... ncurses checking for linking with ncurses library... OK checking for tgetent()... configure: error: NOT FOUND! }}} I don't know if it helps, but here is something that may be related somehow: If I download the svn version of vim, and create a similar configure string... {{{ ./configure --enable-gui=no --without-x --disable-gpm --disable-nls --with-tlib=ncurses --enable-multibyte --enable-rubyinterp }}} ...configure will work successfully, only to afterwards have the linker break down with some "ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture ppc" and "ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386" errors. If I then re- configure adding "--with-mac-arch=intel", I get the tgetent() ncurses error. If only this would work, I could get some ruby omni completion... :( -Ian -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13292#comment:12> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
