[REBOL] Re: setup on FreeBSD plus Apache

From: t-man:onemain at: 26-Feb-2001 8:36

howdy-- Thanks! That response is worse than Greek to me (I at least had a little schooling with that) but hopefully it makes perfect sense to him. If I had to translate, you are saying that either: 1. install an experimental version, as they don't seem to have this prob. or 2. do that linking thing you said so the libtermcap maps to the libncurses he already has going. But this requires doing an ldconfig to "make it so" right-o I'll see if he flinches or his eyes glaze over for #2, and if not, we'll try #1. thanks tons.

The problem is that the release versions of BSD/Linux REBOL appear to be linked to the obsolete termcap libs (for heaven and RT knows what reason.) The xpers seem to work properly, but a kludge for the release versions is to set up a symbolic link from the latest libncurses he has on his system to the missing libtermcap.so.2 Just remember to do a ldconfig afterwards! ;) Chris -- New sig in the works Explorer2260 Designer and Coder http://www.starforge.co.uk
