[GRASS-dev] FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 brakes congigure

[Maciej Sieczka]

Hi,

Arch has recently added CPPFLAGS="-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" [1] to its 
package and build management toolset config [2].

This brakes ./configure for any GRASS version as follows:

$ CPPFLAGS="-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" ./configure | tail
configure: error: *** Unable to locate curses includes.
checking for X... libraries , headers /usr/include
checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet... no
checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet_stub... no
checking for gethostbyname... yes
checking for connect... yes
checking for remove... yes
checking for shmat... yes
checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
checking whether to use Curses... yes
checking for curses.h... no

--without-curses makes it pass only until:

checking for zlib.h... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate zlib includes.

Is there something that GRASS can do about this problem?

BTW, I found an old ticket [3] where Glynn says GRASS 7 don't use curses 
at all. Is it still not going to?
