emerge dialog aborts as it cannot find the ncursesw lib. I suspect that the standard installation of panther's ncurses lib is compiled w/o wide character support. Is there a way to make portage aware of this fact as long as ncurses is not even testing on ppc-macos? $ emerge dialog Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-util/dialog-1.0.20050206 to / >>> md5 files ;-) ChangeLog >>> md5 files ;-) dialog-1.0.20040731.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) dialog-1.0.20050206.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-dialog-1.0.20040731 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-dialog-1.0.20050206 >>> md5 src_uri ;-) dialog_1.0-20050206.orig.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking dialog_1.0-20050206.orig.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/dialog-1.0.20050206/work >>> Source unpacked. * econf: updating dialog-1.0-20050206/config.guess with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess * econf: updating dialog-1.0-20050206/config.sub with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.sub ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=powerpc-apple-darwin --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --with-ncursesw [...] checking for multibyte character support... yes checking for ncursesw header in include-path... curses.h checking for ncurses version... 5.2.20020209 checking for Gpm_Open in -lgpm... no checking for initscr... no checking for initscr in -lncursesw... no checking for -lncursesw in /usr/local/lib... no checking for -lncursesw in /usr/lib... no configure: error: Cannot link ncursesw library $ emerge --info !!!
