[Freeswitch-users] installing on Amazon EC2

[Tim Meade]

I had this issue using the base amazon version of Linux.  I don't think we ever got past it.   I ended up using a centos instance for the base.

If you do figure it out please let us know!

Subject: [Freeswitch-users] installing on Amazon EC2

Hi all,

I'm trying to build/install Free Switch on an Amazon EC2 server (Amazon Linux AMI 64-bit) and "./configure" keeps exiting with the following error :

./configure
<snip>
checking for the version of libcurl... 7.24.0 checking for libcurl >= version 7.13.0... yes checking whether libcurl is usable... no no checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
configure: error: libtermcap, libcurses or libncurses are required!

(notice the extra "no" on a line by itself)

....

I have installed all the ncurses packages I can find, to no avail :

rpm -qa | grep -E 'curses|ncurses|term|curl'
ncurses-term-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.x86_64
ncurses-libs-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.i686
python-pycurl-7.19.0-8.7.amzn1.x86_64
libcurl-7.24.0-5.25.amzn1.x86_64
ncurses-base-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.x86_64
ncurses-libs-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.x86_64
ncurses-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.x86_64
curl-7.24.0-5.25.amzn1.x86_64
ncurses-devel-5.7-3.20090208.9.amzn1.x86_64
libcurl-devel-7.24.0-5.25.amzn1.x86_64

....

I have been able to install succcessfully on a local CentOS machine and Rackspace CentOS 6.3 VM, I believe the issue is something specific to Amazon EC2 but I haven't been able to figure it out.

Any suggestions for a fix/workaround would be appreciated.



Thanks,

Rob
