Well. First I'd like to say AAAAAAAARGH! Next I'd like to state that I cannot figure out WHAT could've caused the following to happen:
There seems to be a problem with the lxdialog companion utility which is built prior to running Menuconfig. Usually this is an indicator that you have upgraded/downgraded your ncurses libraries and did not remove the old ncurses header file(s) in /usr/include or /usr/include/ncurses.
It is VERY important that you have only one set of ncurses header files and that those files are properly version matched to the ncurses libraries installed on your machine.
You may also need to rebuild lxdialog. This can be done by moving to the /usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog directory and issuing the "make clean all" command.
If you have verified that your ncurses install is correct, you may email the maintainer <mec@shout.net> or post a message to <linux-kernel@vger.rutgers.edu> for additional assistance.
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 139
Now I did isntall libc 2.0.105 on my system and, thinking that somehow screwed up my ncurses installation I uninstalled ncurses after getting fresh 4.2 sources (with 5/12 patch) and installed the freshly compiled stuff. Still the above. Now I am somewhat lost. I have no idea what caused make menuconfig to break. It was working before.
As such... HELP. :)
System: linux 2.1.131ac6, libc 2.0.105, ncurses 4.2.981205 and the rest is more or less a redhat 5.1 install.
I'd love to be able to compile my kernel :) I've tried 128, 129, 130, 131, 131ac2, ac3, ac5, ac6. They all wont do it.
