undefined reference to `tgetflag'

Here I'm compiling Sun Grid Engine source code, while executing last step ./aimk -no-java -no-jni -no-secure -spool-classic -no-dump -no-qmon, error occurred which stacktrace like below

and i have already googled tgetflag function and this is it tgetflag(3) - Linux man page. So i thought maybe i lost ncurses library, more info can see this link, after install ncurses related package and re-compile such source and such error still occurred, which is really weird, this is my ncurses package list:

    [root@localhost source]# rpm -qa | grep "ncurses*"
ncurses-devel-5.9-14.20130511.el7_4.x86_64
ncurses-libs-5.9-14.20130511.el7_4.x86_64
ncurses-5.9-14.20130511.el7_4.x86_64
ncurses-base-5.9-14.20130511.el7_4.noarch
Solution

  • Hope this answer can take someone out, here is my steps:

    1. delete such project and extract original tar.gz file
    2. confirm that ncurses related library had been download and install
    3. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/:/usr/lib/:/usr/local/lib, This step telling gcc to get its needed correct package directly
    4. ./aimk -no-java -no-jni -no-secure -spool-classic -no-dump -only-depend
    5. ./scripts/zerodepend
    6. ./aimk -no-java -no-jni -no-secure -spool-classic -no-dump depend
