2019-11-11kconfig: be more helpful if pkg-config is missingAlyssa Ross
If ncurses is installed, but at a non-default location, the previous error message was not helpful in resolving the situation. Now it will suggest that pkg-config might need to be installed in addition to ncurses. Signed-off-by: Alyssa Ross <hi@alyssa.is> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-09-03kconfig: do not require pkg-config on make {menu,n}configMasahiro Yamada
Meelis Roos reported a {menu,n}config regression: "I have libncurses devel package installed in the default system location (as do 99%+ on actual developers probably) and in this case, pkg-config is useless. pkg-config is needed only when libraries and headers are installed in non-default locations but it is bad to require installation of pkg-config on all the machines where make menuconfig would be possibly run." For {menu,n}config, do not use pkg-config if it is not installed. For {g,x}config, keep checking pkg-config since we really rely on it for finding the installation paths of the required packages.

2018-05-28kconfig: refactor ncurses package checks for building mconf and nconfMasahiro Yamada
The mconf (or its infrastructure, lxdiaglog) depends on the ncurses. Move and rename check-lxdialog.sh to mconf-cfg.sh to make it work in the same way as for qconf and gconf. This commit fixes some more weirdnesses. The nconf also needs ncurses packages. HOSTLOADLIBES_nconf is set to the libraries needed for nconf, but the cflags is not explicitly set. Actually, nconf relies on the check-lxdialog.sh for the proper cflags: HOST_EXTRACFLAGS += $(shell $(CONFIG_SHELL) $(check-lxdialog) -ccflags) \ -DLOCALE The code above passes the ncurses flags to all objects, even for conf, qconf, gconf. Let's pass the ncurses flags only to mconf and nconf. Currently, the presence of ncurses is not checked for nconf. Let's show a prompt like the mconf case. According to Randy's report, the shell scripts still need to carry the fallback code in case the pkg-config fails to find the ncurses packages.
