can't compile on Fedora

[renanmartins1813]

I am following the Compile instructions for Linux; Installed all dependencies and upgraded the entire system but the error keeps occurring.

Hi there @renanmartins1813,

Humm, on quick glance, makeinstall.txt and make.txt says, there is a problem in the linking stage...:

Hello @tcoyvwac,

I managed to solve the problem using the following commands: sudo dnf install ncurses-compat-libs ncurses-static reboot sudo ldconfig -v reboot

I am not sure which one did the trick but I'm glad that one of them did!

Oh! I'm glad it worked! I'm adding your findings to the documentation and close this thread https://github.com/patriciogonzalezvivo/glslViewer/wiki/Compile-on-Linux#fedora

If someone can verify that this instructions work, would be great
