Re: [gpsd-dev] regresssion from 2011: git head fails to build on NetBSD

Thanks for the two fixes - they work for me.

  curses/curses_dll.h?  What?  Where does GPSD use that? No grep hits...

So, this is included by something else in ncurses, and apparently the
bug is that ncurses-config says the include path is
/usr/pkg/include/ncurses, but its own includes expect /usr/pkg/include.

Regardless, I am trying to pass -I/usr/pkg/include and -L/R because on
NetBSD lots of expected stuff is in pkgsrc rather than the base system.
This ought to be doable, I think, separately from the ncurses bugs.

So I am doing:

CPPPATH="/usr/pkg/include" \
LIBPATH="/usr/pkg/lib" \
    scons prefix=/usr/pkg

but getting the following (on rerunning to elide successful stuff, of
which there is a lot).

Reading SConstruct, it seems ncurses' cppflags and libs are stuck
together, rather than the usual build/link separation.
