This article mainly explains "how to install ncurses under Linux". Interested friends may wish to have a look. The method introduced in this paper is simple, fast and practical. Let's let the editor take you to learn how to install ncurses under Linux.

Ncurses (new curses) is a set of programming libraries that provide a series of functions for users to call to generate a text-based user interface. The n in the name ncurses means "new" because it is the free software version of curses. Because of AT&T 's "infamous" copyright policy, people had to replace it with ncurses later.

1) method 1: install the ncurses package of RPM

Here you can install either the manual RPM package command or the yum command, and we use the RPM package command to install. The installation commands are as follows:

[root@localhost] # rpm-ivh / mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

[root@localhost] # rpm-ivh / mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-devel-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

[root@localhost] # rpm-ivh / mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-libs-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

[root@localhost] # rpm-ivh / mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-base-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

[root@localhost] # rpm-ivh / mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-term-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

[root@localhost ~] # rpm-ivh/mnt/cdrom/Packages/ncurses-static-5.7-3.20090208.el6.i686.rpm

But what you need to note here is that "ncurses-static" is on the second CentOS CD. After the installation is complete, you can proceed to install the next software MySQL.

2) method 2: install the source package of ncurses

The installation steps are as follows:

[root@localhost ~] # cd / usr/locai/src/ncurses-5.9# enter the ncurses extracted directory

[root@localhost ncurses-5.9] #. / configure\ # pre-compilation configuration-with-shared\ # generates shared libraries; without-debug\ # does not generate debug libraries; without-ada\ # does not compile to ada bindings, because you cannot use the ada-enable-overwrite # parameter to install the header files into the / tools/include directory instead of / tools/include/ncurses directory when you enter the chroot environment

[root@localhost ncurses-5.9] # make # compilation

[root@localhost ncurses-5.9) # make install # compile and install
