Re: [PATCH] Documentation: Update ncurses package names for menuconfig
From: Randy Dunlap

Hi,
I think that you are missing my point, so let me start over and try to
clarify it.
In the patch description, it says "libncurses-devel" (not libncurses-dev).
In the patch itself, it says libncurses-dev (not libncurses-devel).
I suspect that one of these is incorrect. Which one is it?
Thanks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The package name is ncurses-devel for Redhat based distros
and libncurses-devel for Debian based distros.
