Comment 1 Antoine Pierlot-Garcin 2015-06-02 07:51:31 UTC

I also encountered this bug, using host GCC 5. An upstream fix is available here:

http://ncurses.scripts.mit.edu/?p=ncurses.git;a=blobdiff;f=ncurses/base/MKlib_gen.sh;h=b91398c740a266f10edbbce19f19c52b9709556f;hp=d8cc3c9751faa157d0c8cb8e16fbe4217703966b;hb=97bb4678dc03e753290b39bbff30ba2825df9517;hpb=762520a7930d7f698d542628d3c04bc201f7dac2

Comment 2 Peter Korsgaard 2015-06-02 08:30:26 UTC

Please try with the final 2015.05 release instead of RC3, as I merged a fix for this shortly before the release:

Comment 3 Patricia Holden 2015-06-02 17:40:54 UTC

I had 2015.05 loaded.  What I did to make it work is re-install ncurses locally even though it was at the latest version and then let buildroot build the toolchain instead of using crosstools-ng which was having same issue.  I finally got it all built late last night.  Thanks for the quick response!
