While upgrading the Alpine Linux ChezScheme package to 0.10.0, I encountered a weird build failure on ppc64le (
--machine=tpb64l
) were it fails to link against ncurses:Further debugging revealed that this is due to the fact that the
configure
script does not add-lncurses
to the linker flags if the machine type does not end in*le
. Since 0.10.0 introduced little-endian targets (such astpb64l
) which do not end in*le
I guess theconfigure
script needs to be adjusted accordingly?This patch fixes the described build failure on Alpine Linux.
