4 Subject: [PATCH] menuconfig,mconf-cfg: Allow specification of ncurses location
6 In some cross build environments such as the Yocto Project build
7 environment it provides an ncurses library that is compiled
8 differently than the host's version. This causes display corruption
9 problems when the host's curses includes are used instead of the
10 includes from the provided compiler are overridden. There is a second
11 case where there is no curses libraries at all on the host system and
12 menuconfig will just fail entirely.
14 The solution is simply to allow an override variable in
15 check-lxdialog.sh for environments such as the Yocto Project. Adding
16 a CROSS_CURSES_LIB and CROSS_CURSES_INC solves the issue and allowing
17 compiling and linking against the right headers and libraries.
