More info,

> pcianp portage # find /usr/lib -name 'libnc*' -type f -print
> /usr/lib/libncurses.a
> /usr/lib/libncurses++.a

but, after some looking around...

pcianp portage # find /lib -name 'libnc*'
/lib/libncurses.so.5.2
/lib/libncurses.so
/lib/libncurses.so.5

and I spotted in the output from dev-util/dialog:

...
checking for -lncurses in /usr/lib... no
checking for -lncurses in /usr/lib/ncurses... no
checking for -lncurses in /usr/ncurses/lib... no
checking for -lncurses in /lib... no
checking for -lncurses in /lib/ncurses... no
...

so it's looking in the right place but not finding it apparently.

I'm going to try

emerge -C sys-libs/ncurses && emerge sys-libs/ncurses

to ensure that I've got an up to date build, but portage should
take care of this anyway for me, right?

Hmmm, that didn't work. I'm going to head on over to #gentoo to
ask the question there then.

Yours,
Ian.
