20 1. gentoolkit doesn't build anything. You said 'gentookit' which I
21 am taking as a typographical error? Anyway, you are doing
22 'emerge dialog' here, I think, which is a gentoolkit dependency
23 so that all makes sense.
24
25 2. More interesting. To get -lncursesw, you have to build
26 ncurses USEing unicode:
27 USE='unicode' emerge ncurses
28
29 And dialog does look for -lncursesw IF you USE='unicode' emerge dialog
30
31 You should be able to USE=unicode emerge ncurses
32 and fix the problem. (Or add unicode to the USE list in make.conf)
