This should not be a fatal error, I think. If you are sure that you are using the exact procedure outlined in gdb/config/djgpp/README, please report this problem as well (I suspect some change in the configury stuff in the current snapshot causes this failure). > c:/dj204/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -ldir > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > configure: failed program was: > #line 4648 "configure" > #include "confdefs.h" > > This is the first differnce in the bfd\config.log file This is irrelevant to the terminfo problem. You should look in config.log for the test program that tries to find a term library. However, I doubt that looking at the test program could get you anywhere. The problem is that the configure script shouldn't fail for DJGPP if that library is absent, since the DJGPP port doesn't use such a library and doesn't need it.
