I've tried to build 1.0.6 on a Debian GNU/Linux system, and telnet is
failing to compile because of an undefined reference to tgetent().
The string `tgetent' does not occur in any of the files in my
/usr/include, and the list of occurrences in the kerberos distribution
is below (you will see it does not define it):
./appl/telnet/telnet/telnet.c: * Given a buffer returned by tgetent(), this routine will turn
./appl/telnet/telnet/telnet.c: if (tgetent(termbuf, tname) == 1) {
./appl/telnet/telnetd/ChangeLog: security in tgetent.
./appl/telnet/telnetd/state.c: strcmp(varp, "TERMINFO") && /* with tgetent */
./appl/telnet/telnetd/telnetd-ktd.c: * tgetent() will return 1 if the type is known, and
./appl/telnet/telnetd/telnetd-ktd.c: if (tgetent(buf, s) == 0)
./appl/telnet/telnetd/telnetd.c: * tgetent() will return 1 if the type is known, and
./appl/telnet/telnetd/telnetd.c: if (tgetent(buf, s) == 0)
