<div dir="ltr">David<div><br></div><div>It might be that you deviate from the recommended install instructions earlier. Cactus and the Einstein Toolkit contain many thorns, and not all thorns build on all systems. Quite unfortunately, Cactus's default behaviour is to actually try and build all thorns it finds, which is the thing that is "it's about time". If you provide a thorn list when creating a new configuration, then you'll build far fewer thorns -- in particular you'll build only thorns that are officially supported and should work out of the box.</div><div><br></div><div>I don't think there is ever a case where I'd want to build all thorns that Cactus finds. Thus the default of creating a thorn list from all thorns isn't good. It should be changed to abort with an error instead, requiring an explicit thorn list.</div><div><br></div><div>-erik</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jul 31, 2016 at 8:43 PM, David Rosenberg <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:drdnrosenberg@gmail.com" target="_blank">drdnrosenberg@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">The fact that 'lbncurses' and 'lua' don't compile is an old story the answer to is all over the internet. ld gives a message back exit 1 while trying to compile these, 'ltermcap' routine is missing.

Ah, now I understand. Lua does not actually *need* readline however. It<br>
can be compiled without it.<br>
