>Description:
The following link line:
cc -Wall -g -pipe -L/usr/local/lib -o tsiag -L../siod \
-L../common -L../siag fonts.o forminput.o window.o \
selection.o tsiag.o -lsiag -lcommon -lsiod -lncurses -lcrypt \
-L/usr/local/lib -lguile -lreadline -lm -ltcl80 -lgdbm
results in a runnable executable with the following libs:
tsiag:
libncurses.so.3 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.3 (0x280a9000)
libcrypt.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2 (0x280ba000)
libguile.so.4 => /usr/local/lib/libguile.so.4 (0x280bd000)
libreadline.so.3 => /usr/lib/libreadline.so.3 (0x2811b000)
libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 (0x2813d000)
libtcl80.so => /usr/local/lib/libtcl80.so (0x28157000)
libc.so.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3 (0x281b9000)
libmytinfo.so.2 => /usr/lib/libmytinfo.so.2 (0x28239000)
libtermcap.so.2 => /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2 (0x2824f000)
If I explicitly add -ltermcap to the link-line (this library is
requested by ncurses), which should NOT do any harm, the ldd's
output is slightly different:
tsiag:
libncurses.so.3 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.3 (0x280a9000)
libtermcap.so.2 => /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2 (0x280ba000)
libcrypt.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2 (0x280bf000)
libguile.so.4 => /usr/local/lib/libguile.so.4 (0x280c2000)
libreadline.so.3 => /usr/lib/libreadline.so.3 (0x28120000)
libtcl80.so => /usr/local/lib/libtcl80.so (0x28142000)
libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 (0x281a4000)
libc.so.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3 (0x281be000)
libmytinfo.so.2 => /usr/lib/libmytinfo.so.2 (0x2823e000)
and the executable dies on start-up:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

>How-To-Repeat:
I'm trying to update the math/siag port to the latest
Siag-3.1.16, but you can probably reproduce this with
anything that uses ncurses.
I do not believe this to be Siag's problem -- the
-ltermcap is redundant but should be harmless, AFAIK.
>Fix:
Do NOT use the explicit -ltermcap, but this _may_ break some
Makefiles, which do this for compatability with other systems.
