        Can someone maybe tell me why the ./configure did not mention the ncurses/curses library being missing ?
        I am pretty sure this check is pretty much standard .

Hello all,

I have problem installing BIRD 1.3.11 (same problem with 1.4) on Debian (rel. 7.3).

After installing libreadline6-dev library configuration passed with following result:

BIRD was configured with the following options:
Source directory: .
Object directory: obj
Iproute2 directory: /etc/iproute2
System configuration: ./sysdep/cf/linux.h
Debugging: no
Routing protocols: bgp ospf pipe rip static
Client: yes


But when I run make command I get error:

....
../../client/birdc.c:16:20: fatal error: curses.h: File or catalog not found
compilation terminated.
make[2] : *** [birdc.o] Error 1
make[2] : Leaving '/home/user/bird-1.4/obj/client' catalog
make[1] : *** [subdir] Error 2
make[1] : Leaving '/home/user/bird-1.4/obj' catalog
make: *** [all] Error 2

Best regards,
Radoslaw
