Check out https://sourceforge.net/p/syncterm/tickets/

I think this problem has been reported before. Perhaps there's a solution reported there.

Hey Digitalman,

Thanks for the reply. I went through the open and closed tickets. The
only one that seems to be a similar issue was deemed BS. Will you
specify which ticket it is?

Nevermind, I was able to fix the old installation. I'm back to working again. Thanks for your help anyway.

Hello all,

There is not currently a Sourceforge ticket with a solution to this problem. I am experiencing the same issue that Daniel described. My problem is occurring after trying to build from source on an instance of Amazon Linux 2, which is based on RHEL.

I can post more output here if necessary. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
@disloops

My guess is that it has to do with one of the external dependencies (e.g. ncurses or maybe SDL2). Perhaps see if you update one or both of those development packages on your Linux system to something newer or the latest.

That is absolutely correct. I did not install SDL2 prior to attempting to compile SyncTerm. The following package installations were necessary:
$ sudo yum install gcc
$ sudo yum install patch
$ sudo yum install ncurses-devel
$ sudo yum install SDL2-devel
Everything works now - thanks!
