Build problem

[casionwoo]

Hello

I want to try this tracing tool on my work. So I cloned and tried to build based on README.md file.

but when I typed make, I got an error like below:

My work environment is non-native linux, I'm working on parallels on mac. Please let me know if there's something that i missed..

Thanks for using uftrace and reporting the bug. There was a typo when there's no libncursesw on the system. The following patch should fix it.

diff --git a/cmd-tui.c b/cmd-tui.c

I also suggest you to install the necessary packages before compilation as described in QUICK installation guide. (I assume that you use ubuntu)

$ sudo apt-get install libelf-dev           # mandatory
$ sudo apt-get install pandoc               # for man pages (optional)
$ sudo apt-get install libpython2.7-dev     # for python scripting (optional)
$ sudo apt-get install libncursesw5-dev     # for TUI (optional)

I also think that you better build uftrace in a new repository. You may have some problems building the recent uftrace after updating it to newest one.

$ git clone https://github.com/namhyung/uftrace.git
$ cd uftrace
$ make
$ sudo make install
