Pine compiles for me now; things I did: # ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/cc
install -dev portion of ncurses package add "-llber" to the compile options in the "build" script (alternatively could have adjusted it to build without LDAP support) That last I'd call a bug in the Debian source package; I assume that the maintainers must know about it by now but how would I figure out the right person to report it to? Once again, Debian newbie here... Thanks for all the help from the list. -m On Thu, Jan 03, 2002 at 11:43:59AM -0600, Michael Jinks wrote: > Common newbie question I'm sure; I need to install pine and the compile > isn't working.
