I have made progress on building OpenEMM 2015, but have run into the following error and can't seem to solve it. Here is a clip of the output.

Code: Select all

These functions are originally provide by the termcap library. The parts of SLang referencing these functions are not used in OpenEMM, so I'm a bit surprised, that these leads into a link error. You can try to find out which library provides these functions on your operating system and add them to LIBS entry in the GNUmakefile found in the xmlback directory. Typically one of these libraries should do the trick:

-ltermcap

-ltermlib

-lcurses

-lncurses

Do I have to modify it in the tar file? The folder seems to get overwritten each time I compile.

Thanks for helping. I got it to compile by installing ncurses by:

apt-get install libncurses5-dev

Thanks for your help,

Thank you for describing your solution. Could you please mention the Debian or Ubuntu version you use?
