Description

when I tried to build bash at the very begining, it failed, because the ncurses lib is not installed in my system. I installed a fresh RedHat 7.0 system, and try to build LFS system according book pre-4, but I failed in the very begining--which is build bash. The reason is that redhat 7.0 didn't install ncurses component, I think. And I just took it out, recompiled it again, and everything is fine. SO I don't think the --with-curses is neccessary in this step.

It is highly recommended to link bash with ncurses and not with termcap which you were probably linking with.
