Description

This article is from the 3b1 computers FAQ, by John B. Bunch with numerous contributions by others.

4.7. Why are the header files missing after an install of the Development Set?

One of the packages' Install scripts (apparently that of "Curses/Terminfo Programmers Package"), copies curses.h to /usr/include anticipating that the directory has already been created by a previous package's Install script. If /usr/include doesn't exist yet because the packages weren't installed in the right order, the Install script will make a *file* called /usr/include, which is really curses.h.

To prevent this from happening, install the packages in this order:

	Curses/Terminfo End User Package
	Development Set 3.5x
	Curses/Terminfo Programmers Package
