<term><parameter>--without-ada</parameter></term>
<listitem>
<para>This ensures that Ncurses does not build support for the Ada
compiler which may be present on the host but will not be available
once we enter the <command>chroot</command> environment.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><parameter>--enable-overwrite</parameter></term>
<listitem>
<para>This tells Ncurses to install its header files into
<filename class="directory">/tools/include</filename>, instead of
<filename class="directory">/tools/include/ncurses</filename>, to
ensure that other packages can find the Ncurses headers
successfully.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><parameter>--enable-widec</parameter></term>
<listitem>
<para>This switch causes wide-character libraries (e.g., <filename
class="libraryfile">libncursesw.so.&ncurses-version;</filename>)
to be built instead of normal ones (e.g., <filename
class="libraryfile">libncurses.so.&ncurses-version;</filename>).
These wide-character libraries are usable in both multibyte and
traditional 8-bit locales, while normal libraries work properly
only in 8-bit locales. Wide-character and normal libraries are
source-compatible, but not binary-compatible.</para>

<para>This package has a test suite, but it can only be run after the
package has been installed. The tests reside in the
