Not to mention the issues with xentools 3.1.2 at least under i386, I'd
 reccommend updating to 3.1.3 to avoid issues, unless amd64 is exempt.

 I saw an update to ncurses so hopefully xentools should just build now.


I now get a linking error, so I had to add a hack to my mk.conf for a
couple of different pkgsrc ports:

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/pkgsrc/sysutils/xentools*} ||
${.CURDIR:M*/pkgsrc/graphics/SDL_image}
CURSES_DEFAULT = ncurses
.endif

I didn't check on what was actually updated but I noticed that pkgsrc/devel/ncurses/builtin.mk was modified so guessed the patch posted in the 'xentools/ncurses.h not found' thread had been applied.

I don't have ncurses installed now however and only tested building with the builtin curses.

I just looked and it appears to have been applied. Have you cvs updated pkgsrc?

I'll test just to make sure.
