%general-entities; ]> Ncurses temporary system ./configure --prefix=/tools --with-shared \ --host=${LFS_TARGET} --without-debug --without-ada \ --enable-overwrite --with-build-cc=gcc --with-shared This tells Ncurses to create a shared library. --without-debug This tells Ncurses not to build with debug information. --without-ada This ensures that Ncurses does not build support for the Ada compiler which may be present on the host but will not be available when building the final system. --enable-overwrite This tells Ncurses to install its header files into /tools/include, instead of /tools/include/ncurses, to ensure that other packages can find the Ncurses headers successfully. --with-build-cc=gcc This tells Ncurses what type of compiler we are using.
