Compiling iftop

  • Login as root to a terminal window
  • Make sure gcc and make are installed
  • Make sure libpcap-dev is installed
  • Download the source from the iftop website
  • Copy the soucecodefile to /tmp
  • cd /tmp
  • Extract the file tar xf tar xf iftop-1.0pre4.tar.gz
  • Run ./configure && make
  • Then we ran into
  checking for a curses library containing mvchgat... none found
  configure: error: Curses! Foiled again!
  (Can't find a curses library supporting mvchgat.)
  Consider installing ncurses.

ncurses is installed (ncurses-base, ncurses-bin, ncurses-term and libncurses5, libncurses6, libncursesw5, libncursesw6) and works. iftop installed from the repository and other ncurses based programs work fine
Installing libncurses6-dbg did not solve it
We could not find a solution so far
