[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Problems encountered during Evergreen-ILS-1.2.3.0 compilation under 64-bit CentOS5

[Dale Arntson]

Hi Vaclav,

I also encountered this problem on a Redhat 5 install, and was able to 
get around it by adding termcap to LDLIBS in the 
Open-ILS/src/extras/Makefile as follows:

LDLIBS += -ltermcap -lreadline -loils_utils -lopensrf -lobjson -lxml2 
-loils_idl

Regards,
