6<para>Fix two minor things:</para>

8<para><screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../ncurses-&ncurses-version;-etip-2.patch
9patch -Np1 -i ../ncurses-&ncurses-version;-vsscanf.patch</userinput></screen></para>

11<para>The first patch corrects the <filename>etip.h</filename> header file, and
12the second patch prevents some compiler warnings being issued on the use of
13deprecated headers.</para>

15<para>Now prepare Ncurses to be compiled:</para>

17<para><screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/tools --with-shared \
18&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--without-debug --without-ada --enable-overwrite</userinput></screen></para>

22<itemizedlist>
23<listitem><para><userinput>--without-ada</userinput>: This tells Ncurses not
24to build its Ada bindings, even if an Ada compiler is installed on the host.
25This must be done because once we enter the chroot environment, Ada will no
26longer be available.</para></listitem>
27
28<listitem><para><userinput>--enable-overwrite</userinput>: This tells Ncurses
29to install its header files into <filename class="directory">/tools/include</filename>
30instead of <filename class="directory">/tools/include/ncurses</filename> to
31ensure that other packages can find the Ncurses headers successfully.</para>
