OK, here is an easy way to force the SDK to use a "fixed" ncurses
while all your other apps continue to happily use the older
ncurses that came with your distro. Follow these steps:
- download ncurses-4.2.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses
- unpack the tarball: tar xzvf ncurses-4.2.tar.gz
- enter the source dir: cd ncurses-4.2
- configure: ./configure --with-shared --prefix=/usr/amiga
- compile: make
- install: make install
- In a shell, type: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/amiga/lib
- Try running intent_media and intent_shell which should now be
redirected to the new ncurses. All other apps run from other shells
will use the old ncurses. The next time you want to run the SDK, just
type "export LD_LIBRARY_PAth=/usr/amiga/lib"; there's no need to repeat the other steps.
