lwall@sdcrdcf.UUCP (Larry Wall) (05/21/85)
System: rn version 4.3
Patch #: 13
Priority: MEDIUM
Subject: Configure gets spoofed on terminfo vs. termlib.
From: lwall@sdcrdcf (Larry Wall)
Description:
Several people have complained that Configure found what it
thought was a terminfo system, only to find when rn was loaded
that -lcurses didn't contain termlib routines. Checking for the
directories /usr/lib/terminfo or /etc/term is not really good
enough. The following patch makes Configure check -lcurses to see
if it really has a termlib emulator in it.
The patch also corrects a minor problem in that values in
the config.sh file were surrounded by double rather than single
quotes, which causes an unwanted variable substitution to occur
on values containing '$', such as Log="$Log". Rayan Zachariassen
<rayan@utai.UUCP> pointed out the problem.
Fix: From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your rn source directory.
Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle". If you don't have
the patch program, apply the following by hand, or get patch.
If patch indicates that patchlevel is the wrong version, you may need
to apply one or more previous patches, or the patch may already
have been applied. See the patchlevel file to find out what has or
has not been applied. In any event, don't continue with the patch.
