BitchX requires either the terminfo or termcap terminal-handling library.
This is commonly provided by the ncurses library, so if you get the error:
Cannot find terminfo or termcap - try installing the ncurses-dev / ncurses-devel package.
..then you should try to find the ncurses development package for your OS.
Some examples of what this package may be called:
Debian, Ubuntu: libncurses5-dev
Fedora, CentOS, OpenSuSE: ncurses-devel
-----
There have been reports that FreeBSD Clang causes BitchX to seg fault. As a
workaround, use gcc to compile the client by setting the CC environment
variable before running configure.
