Hello
I want to compile the kernel 5.10 but when I run [c]make menuconfig[/c] I get the message
[c]/usr/bin/ld: scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/util.o: undefined reference to symbol 'nodelay'
/usr/bin/ld: /lib/libtinfo.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line[/c]
I thought maybe I needed to upgrade a package but according to https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.10/process/changes.html#current-minimal-requirements all are OK (using gcc 6.2.0)
I searched on the internet but I didn't find anything that helped.
Someone can help?

Hi Ceel,
Not sure but i seem have similar issue when i try to build 5.10 branch kernel on my own system.
I need to enable --enable-pc-files in configure step for ncursesw (ncursesw-dev).
Checked on cooking, it's case, maybe just need add ncursesw-dev deps.

Hi shann,
Thank you for your answer.
[c]ncursesw[/c] and [c]ncursesw-dev[/c] are installed, and [c]--enable-pc-files[/c] is set in the ncurses/ncursesw's receipts.

@ gibor,
5.10.82
I'll give a try with 5.10.80 tomorrow or the day after and tell you.
Thanks.

@Ceel
Don't waste your time with that test, it works identical for me... the problems can be seen not to be in the sources.

Hi gibor,
Thank you for your help. To be honest, I think I'd have tested it in a last resort.
Long story short: reading articles on the internet about "undefined reference to symbol" and "error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line", it appeared that libtinfo.so.6 wasn't not linked. Modifying line #38 in [c]linux-5.10.82/scripts/kconfig/mconf-cfg.sh[/c] from [c]echo libs=\"-lncurses\"[/c] in [c]echo libs=\"-lncurses -ltinfo\"[/c] allows to add [c]-ltinfo[/c] and generates a correct [c]mconf-cfg[/c] file for SliTaz.
I assume you run [c]make menuconfig[/c] on your LFS system and use a [c]ncurses[/c] package you've built, don't you?
My understanding is, but maybe I'm totally wrong, to keep SliTaz as small as possible [c]ncurses[/c] is splitted in several packages (libform libmenu libpanel libtic libtinfo ncurses ncurses-common ncurses-dev ncurses-extra ncurses-man) and we just install the necessary "sub" package(s). So, [c]libs="-lncurses"[/c] in the mconf-cfg file wasn't sufficient.
Thanks again.
