I was able to fix the build issue with:

./configure LIBS="-ltinfo"

But when I start the application is segfaults.

I'm also having this exact same issue on gentoo linux.

I can work around the issue by applying the following patch to calcurse 4.4.0

But, this patch doesn't work on the latest release.

Thanks for the patch!

How exactly do you build calcurse? Are you using a Git clone, the official release tarballs or an ebuild?

Also, are you sure the first hunk of the patch is required? I don't see how it could be related to the issue described in the original bug report.

Thanks! Does this mean you are using the ebuild? Are you sure the first hunk of your patch is required? Which error message do you get with the most recent release? Does it work with 4.5.0?

I'm using the ebuild. I don't know if anything is required.

This is the error I see if I try to compile 4.6.0 or the latest commit without any patch.

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: custom.o: undefined reference to symbol 'keypad'
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /lib64/libtinfow.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line

The patch doesn't work on 4.6.0 or the latest commit.

I was able to fix the build issue with:

./configure LIBS="-ltinfo"

But when I start the application is segfaults.

You could try

./configure LIBS="-ltinfow"

./configure LIBS="-ltinfow" works around the issue. I built 4.6.0 with this trick.

Use AX_WITH_CURSES for curses library discovery
bea7349 
Properly discovers libtinfow for customized systems (e.g., Gentoo) while
offloading search handling to autoconf builtins.

Additionally adds autoconf-archive as a buildtime dependency.

Fixes #250.
