so ncurses should becompile with libtinfo.so
ncurses normally is compiled with libtinfo , Fedora does ... , bash if have it
use it etc..

line 1692:

seems dialog treats libtinfo as part of ncurses
btw many check have errors by using -ltinfo has part of the system as -lm .
for example:
configure:12421: checking for start_color
configure:12458:/home/sergio/hardware/moviecube/buildroot/output/staging/usr/bin/mipsel-unknown-linux-uclibc-gcc --sysroot=/home/sergio/hardware/moviecube/buildroot/output/staging -o conftest

Ok, it seems to be because it ends up looking at your host headers. I've tried to fix that in git, could you give that a try?

Ok, resolving - thanks.
I have no problem with adding an option to add tinfo to the ncurses build, but I don't want to add any new features this close to the 2010.11 release.
Could you send a patch adding optional tinfo build (E.G. with a config option) to ncurses, then I'll apply post-2010.11 - Thanks
