Redhat系统 安装Mysql 5.1时，   ./configure后报如下错误  

checking for tgetent in -lncursesw... no
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no
checking for tgetent in -ltinfo... no
checking for termcap functions library... configure: error: No curses/termcap library found

make && make install  报如下错误
[root@localhost mysql-5.1.57]# make && make install
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

原因：是缺少ncurses安装包，需要安装

查看一下

yum list|grep ncurses

安装

yum -y install ncurses-devel

之后 make && make install  就可以正常安装了！
