Re: [Nano-devel] [PATCH] search ncurses via pkg-config first

[Chris Allegretta]

This seems to be causing problems on my system:

./configure: line 7768: syntax error near unexpected token `NCURSESW,'
./configure: line 7768: `       PKG_CHECK_MODULES(NCURSESW, ncursesw,'

I thought it might be related to the issues listed at
https://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/pkgconfig/pkg_check_modules.html
regarding PKG_CHECK_MODULES being invoked inside a conditional, but
even moving it outside it seems broken.  Haven't been able to track it
down yet, is anyone else having a problem with trunk as of this
change?
