Description Travis Hansen 2014-02-16 17:59:48 UTC 
The documentation comes already generated, so this is generally not a problem
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no
configure: error: libtermcap, libcurses or libncurses are required!

Reproducible: Always

A bit of a hack, since /usr/sbin/ipmi_ui only needs libncurses while /usr/sbin/openipmish only needs libtinfo.

I've applied your path to my local overlay, but configure still can't get by:
checking for dvipdf... /usr/bin/dvipdf
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
checking for tgetent in -lncursesw... no
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no
configure: error: libtermcap, libcurses or libncurses are required!

Just a suggestion for the bumped ebuild.

Fixed in openipmi-2.0.21 which I just committed to the tree.
