Re: [Ltib] Trouble adding new package in LTIB

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Jim,

Although that will do the trick, I would try without: --without-readline
To get termcap in your system, run ./ltib -m config and add it (you can
search by pressing the 's' key).  Termcap is a fairly small package and
is normally included in most systems (even small ones).

If you decide this is what you want, you can enforce this selection by
adding the clause:

   select PKG_TERMCAP

to the entry you put for your package in packages.lkc.  Take a look at
some other packages for examples.

Regards, Stuart
