Hello,

I've just upgraded my Mac and am trying to compile the latest pre-
release.  I now have Mac OS 10.4 on an Intel Core Duo architecture.

Even after exporting CFLAGS="-I/sw/include" and LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib",
I get this message when configuring:

checking for tputs in -ltermcap... no
checking for tputs in -lncurses... no
checking for tputs in -lcurses... no
Cannot build refdb without either libtermcap, libncurses, or libcurses

However I do have at least libncurses installed as fink says so and  
"locate libncurses" includes these lines:

/sw/lib/libncurses.5.dylib
/sw/lib/libncurses.dylib
/sw/lib/libncurses.dylib.5
/sw/lib/ncurses/libncurses++.a
/sw/lib/ncurses/libncurses.5.dylib
/sw/lib/ncurses/libncurses.a
/sw/lib/ncurses/libncurses.dylib
/sw/lib/ncurses/libncurses_g.a
/usr/lib/libncurses.5.4.dylib
/usr/lib/libncurses.5.dylib
/usr/lib/libncurses.dylib

Is this a configure bug?
