Description

Building according to the 'dev' book fails when trying to build vim due to it's inability to locate ncurses. Unless it's ncurses' fault for not being in the right place for vim to find it. Anyway passing it --with-tlib=ncursesw to configure worked for me.

I just built a system from the current dev book. Vim compiled fine with no extra configure switches.

You forgot to create the /usr/lib/libncurses.so ldscript. See the "for" loop on NCurses page in Chapter 6 and text just before it.
