I'm trying to compile from source on a Fedora core 3 system. I'm pretty
sure I configured everything correctly but I get this error:


/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltermlib
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [Sysunix] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mark/Tarballs/nethack-3.4.3/src'
make: *** [nethack] Error 2

Any Idea what I did wrong?

Edit src/Makefile and replace WINTTYLIB from termlib to ncurses.

Well, you told the compiler to use termlib (or didn't tell him not to
use termlib), although termlib isn't available on your PC. Did you
follow the instructions "README.linux" file?

Y'know what. When I opened the file I saw a bunch of stuff about the
binary distribution and didn't read further.

Any I read on and followed the instructions, sort of. They're not
entirely correct. The changes should be made before doing the
"sh setup.sh" step.

Anyway it still doesn't work. I now get:

/usr/lib/libncurses.a -lXaw -lXmu -lXext -lXt -lXpm -lX11
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXaw
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [Sysunix] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mark/Tarballs/nethack-3.4.3/src'
make: *** [nethack] Error 2

If I comment out the "#define X11_GRAPHICS" It compiles but I can't run it
windowed.

Pasi Kallines suggested changing WINTTYLIB to ncurses but that didn't fix
it.

That means he doesn't find the Xaw library, which is required for the
X11 interface of nethack. Do you have the X11 development packages
installed?

Well, if you don't compile X11 support in, you won't get the X11
interface.

The ttylib only affects the tty interface not the X11 interface.

Yes. Could it be some xorg vs the old X11 thing?

I really don't know, but you should try a:

locate Xaw

on the command line and see what you get.

also check to see if:

/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/X11R6/include

are in your /etc/ld.so.conf

If Fedora has that

If they aren't and Xaw is on your system, add them to /etc/ld.so.conf
and run:

/sbin/ldconfig

And then try a recompile and see what happens.

I'm relatively new to Linux though.

It is there under /usr/X11R6/include/X11/

"/usr/X11Rc/include" wasn't

Did that.

Here it is:

[A bunch of non error messages snipped]

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXaw
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

It is still not finding it, do a

locate -r libXaw*

and make sure the directory that contains the results are in the
/etc/ld.so.conf file and spelled correctly. Then "sbin/ldconfig"
like before and then cross your fingers and try. Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Here it is:

[root@buttercup mark]# locate -r libXaw*
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.7.0
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.7.0
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.7
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6.1
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.7
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXau.a

and here is /etc/ld.so.conf"

[root@buttercup mark]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/X11R6/include
/usr/lib/mysql

and make sure the directory that contains the results are in the
/etc/ld.so.conf file and spelled correctly. Then "sbin/ldconfig"
like before and then cross your fingers and try. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately it didn't. I got the same results as before.

Did you make sure to follow step 6 from README.linux? In particular, note
the lines starting with "LFLAGS". (Note: this problem has nothing to do
with ldconfig -- that's a runtime rather than compile time issue).

6. Makefile.src: define modern, non-BSD Linux and linux options throughout
CC = gcc
LFLAGS = -L/usr/X11R6/lib
WINSRC = $(WINTTYSRC) $(WINX11SRC)
WINOBJ = $(WINTTYOBJ) $(WINX11OBJ)
WINTTYLIB = /usr/lib/libncurses.a
WINX11LIB = -lXaw -lXmu -lXext -lXt -lXpm -lX11
WINLIB = $(WINTTYLIB) $(WINX11LIB)

Makefile.utl: define modern, non-BSD Linux and linux options throughout
Use bison/flex instead of yacc/lex
CC = gcc
LFLAGS = -L/usr/X11R6/lib
YACC = bison -y
LEX = flex

Hmm, I don't include any other files in mine, so that's
unfamiliar territory for me. I would investigate and
see what .conf files its pulling in from /etc/ld.so.conf.d.
Check for any errors there, maybe try deleting that
include line and go through the steps and if it doesn't
work put it back. :) Good luck, sorry I can't be more
helpful.

I just remembered that I got errors similar to the original posters when
I first tried to compile Nethack on the PS2. I had not disabled the
debugging LFLAGS. I don't know why the debugging options aren't disabled
by default, but they aren't and since it comes after it will make LFLAGS=
