i can see it keeps trying to download this file ncurses-5.7-20110108-patch.sh.bz2 but the file and locations at the source do not exist anymore.
i have sourced the file from elsewhere and dropped it into sources but it keeps trying to download the file and doenst seem to recognize that ive manually put the file in sources myself.

ive had a couple look at my problem and they say the same thing as to what ive already tried which was to put my own file it needs into sources, they've even supplied the files and still it doenst work.

can anyone help me on this one please.

TIA!!

anyone?
i cant seem to fix this issue

Ik cannot download some required file. This sometimes happen when building. I would recommend to trace the file via google and put it to your build (there were all downloads will be come together). Add a MD5 file to it is also required.

thank you for your reply.
ive sourced the file already and put it in sources.

you mention an MD5 file, i assume i create one using something like md5sum?

Yes exactly

thanks alot mate, its gone past the error now

cheers!!

The same thing could happen more often during the build... Therefore (not only beside that less downloads are required) it is to be recommended to keep the sources for a next of complete rebuild.

The real problem is that ncurses-5.7 has been removed from ftp site invisible-island.net, they are now at version 5.9.
Obviously the build environment has to be updated to reflect that.
I have another few observations regarding the build signalling various problems.
I'll report those in a new thread.
