Installation problem on AIX 4.2

[Thomas Ruedas]

Hello,
I am trying to install octave 2.0.14 on an IBM RS6000 with AIX 4.2 using
gcc and c++ (this is /usr/local/gcc/bin/c++) v.2.95.2 and gmake 3.68.
When running the makefile I got the following error:

c++ -c  -I. -I.. -I../liboctave -I../src -I../libcruft/misc -I../dlfcn
-I../dlfcn -I../glob -I../glob -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mno-fp-in-toc -fno-rtti
-fno-exceptions -fno-implicit-templates -g -O2 -Wall sysdep.cc
sysdep.cc: In function `class octave_value_list Fclc(const
octave_value_list &, int)':
sysdep.cc:396: implicit declaration of function `int tputs(...)'
gmake[2]: *** [sysdep.o] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/tmp_inst/octave-2.0.14/src'
gmake[1]: *** [src] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/tmp_inst/octave-2.0.14'
gmake: *** [all] Error 1

Configure seemed to be OK, basically, although there are some errors in
config.log, such as

configure:5351: checking for tputs in -lncurses
configure:5370: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -g conftest.c -lncurses  -lm 
1>&5
collect2: Library libncurses not found
configure: failed program was:
#line 5359 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error.  */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
    builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply.  */
char tputs();

int main() {
tputs()
; return 0; }
configure:5351: checking for tputs in -lcurses

but I don't know, if this is of any importance.
I would appreciate any hints on how I can fix this problem. Please cc me
any replies, as I am not subscribed to this mailing list.
Thanks in advance,
