Created attachment 683320 [details, diff] move ncurses into RDEPENDS Hi, I can't see any evidence that asterisk needs ncurses at runtime? It seems to be needed only for the menuselect tool at build time? The patch here moves ncurses into build deps only. Grateful if you could test and apply (use case is an embedded system which needs minimal libs)
Does indeed seem unneeded in RDEPEND from a quick look.
I'm sorry. I should test things better before posting... The dependency is on libedit (which in turn depends on ncurses). The build fails without libedit (tried using --without-libedit). So I don't think this can in fact be built to not depend on ncurses The /usr/sbin/{rasterisk,asterisk} utilities both link to libedit I would welcome suggestions to avoid this dep, but I think otherwise this can be closed as invalid. Sorry for the noise
Hmm, I've had a bit of a stab at this. It doesn't seem like libedit is used in so many places, however, it requires more thought than I'm prepared to put into it right now. Closing as invalid. Apologies for the noise
