+From e6ebc8e654bba53f28af5229a1069fc74fa58b7b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

+Subject: [PATCH] menuconfig,check-lxdiaglog.sh: Allow specification of ncurses
+ location
+
+In some cross build environments such as the Yocto Project build
+environment it provides an ncurses library that is compiled
+differently than the host's version.  This causes display corruption
+problems when the host's curses includes are used instead of the
+includes from the provided compiler are overridden.  There is a second
+case where there is no curses libraries at all on the host system and
+menuconfig will just fail entirely.
+
+The solution is simply to allow an override variable in
+check-lxdialog.sh for environments such as the Yocto Project.  Adding
+a CROSS_CURSES_LIB and CROSS_CURSES_INC solves the issue and allowing
+compiling and linking against the right headers and libraries.
