[ptitjoz]

Hello
i installed fbc

Code: Select all

fbc --version
FreeBASIC Compiler - Version 1.05.0 (01-31-2016), built for linux-x86_64 (64bit)
Copyright (C) 2004-2016 The FreeBASIC development team.

when I try to compile a sample hello.bas
print "hello.bas" i have this message (french) :

Code: Select all

fbc hello.bas
ld : ne peut trouver -lncurses

do yo have an idea ?

Whenever a lib is missing go to terminal and do

Code: Select all

sudo apt-cache search libncurses

or similar.

This shows a list of related packages. Mostly one with the ending "dev" is the right.

Maybe "libncurses5-dev" is the right in this case.

then try

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev

if it not works uninstall and try another package.

Do you tried the Screen or Screenres command also ?
If it fails you need some more dev packages.

libx11, libxext, libxpm-dev, libxrandr, libxrender

note it must be the libxxx-dev packages and the right for your OS 32 vs 64-bit.

You can try the installation srcipt from here

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=26349&p=246714#p246714

Then all dependencies are installed automatically, including libncurses5-dev.
