Where did you read that nano needs that stuff? Because it is not in the README. At least libslang2-dev and libutf8proc-dev should not be needed (but they won't do any harm, either). > At the xfce4-terminal i tried pass an arguments, to ./configure script like: > > ./configure --enable-nls --with-slang Don't use --with-slang. It exists only so that Debian can build a nano-tiny without needing ncurses. But with Slang, several of nano's features don't work. So, unless you absolutely need it (in which case you can explain why you need it), don't use it. It's much better to run configure without any options: ./configure In most cases, it will give you the nano you want. > and this works fine! I got new version nano! But when i open any files i > don't see mouse pointer. It don't blinking. That's probably an effect of using --with-slang. As said: don't use it.
