MySQL, RH 7.2 and termcap

    poxy poxy POXY thing...I'm always having trouble with MySQL.

    I'm trying to compile MySQL on a freshly installed RH7.2 machine.
    I've run configure exactly as the manual says[1], and it comes up the the following error:
    error: No curses/termcap library found
    A quick search turned up libtermcap.so.2 in /lib/ and libncurses.so.5 in /usr/lib/.
    According to the termcap page[2] I have the lastest termcap.
    Can anyone shed any light on this? Should I be putting the path to the two librarys in somewhere? Are those two even the right libraries? Should I throw out the whole lot out and use Windows? ;)


    [1]CFLAGS="-O3 -mpentiumpro"
    CXX=gcc
    CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mpentiumpro -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti"
    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-low-memory --with-extra-charsets=complex --enable-assembler

    I think I may have just the thing for you :)

    From Linux.ie
    Install Webserver
    Installs and configures Apache, PHP and MySQL.


    Unfortunately they're download link seems to be down so I've uploaded the file here for you.

    (won't get a chance to upload it until later tonight I'll post when it's done)

    .logic.

    Edit /etc/ld.so.conf and make sure /lib and /usr/lib are in
    that file, each one on a new line. Save, and run ldconfig.

    If that doesn't work, try changing CXXFLAGS to include
    -L/lib -L/usr/bin

    That _might_ work.

    Nope, no dice. Damn it! I've been told this should work straight off! Damn stupid thing! Grrr!

    To follow up on this:

    After a bit of searching on the mysql mailing list, I found what seems to be the solution. I installed the ncurses development library and that has gotten rid of my intial probelm.

    Thanks the logic and static for the suggestions.
