Created attachment 587618 [details, diff] Patch fixing both problems Compiling app-text/hunspell[ncurses] fails to find libncurses[w] during configure and silently disables the ncurses UI leading to an error where running: hunspell file The root cause is the split libtinfo[w] in sys-libs/ncurses[tinfo]. Adding -ltinfo[w] to the check for ncurses[w] in configure fixes the problem. After that fix it compiles, but the ncurses UI segfaults due to conflict between libncursesw and libtinfo (without w!), which is linked independently due to readline. This is a similiar issue as in #682386 and #669096. Modifying the configure to look for tinfow first also during the readline check fixes this second problem.

Upastream appears dead and this has been fixed in Gentoo for over a year. Closing.
