Hi Everyone, I configured Bash 5.1 with prefix=/usr/local, --with-curses and --enable-multibyte. The link failed with undefined references, like tputs. I have the wide char Ncurses built and installed in /usr/local. I found I needed to add -ltinfow to LIBS and LDLIBS for the build to succeed.
I'm pretty sure we are supposed to use the wide character version of Ncurses nowadays. I believe the wide character version supplies both multibyte and single byte functions, so it should just work with all software nowadays. It seems like configure should be able to find the Ncurses library. Maybe Ncurses needs one of those --with-libncurses-prefix. Jeff
