When trying to install python2.3 on either stable or current the python curses module doesn't build. I get the following compiler complaints: STABLE (line numbers in brackets are from CURRENT) /usr/include/ncurses.h:236(289): conflicting types for `wchar_t' /usr/include/stdlib.h:58(57): previous declaration of `wchar_t' /usr/include/ncurses.h:239(292): conflicting types for `wint_t' /usr/include/wchar.h:89(96): previous declaration of `wint_t' Can somebody tell me the story of _WCHAR_T and _BSD_WCHAR_T, or tell me where I can find some hints? I found several long threads on seemingly related problems but haven't been enlightened yet. (One drastic fix is to remove the relevant lines from ncurses.h while building python.) - Till
