I'm not perfectly happy that it's hard-coded to look in /usr/pkg, though. I suppose looking in /etc/mk.conf for the base pkgsrc directlry after checking /usr/pkg would be better, or some other means of determining where the pkgsrc base directory is on a given system. >You shouldn't have a DEPENDS for ncurses, the ncurses/buildlink3.mk >takes care of that. Owl requires terminfo. Terminfo is part of ncurses. If ncurses isn't installed before configure for owl runs, then the configure bails when it can't find terminfo. >Does the package really need ncurses, or are NetBSD's curses good enough? >If not, what's missing? Main issue seems to be the lack of terminfo. -Jason -- Jason White <[email protected]> Jabber: jdwhite(jabber.org) http://www.jdwhite.org/~jdwhite jason.d.white(gmail.com) PGP KeyID: 0x5290E477 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
