As reported to the MINIX 3 gurus:

Adding -ltermcap to the command results in a successful link.

Host system is a Debian Stretch (9.0). It works on Debian Jessie (8.7).

The same error is happening within Ubuntu 17.10.

@boricj how did you pass the flag to the build.sh or ./releasetools/x86_hdimage.sh?

[boricj]

I copy-pasted the failed command in the terminal and added the flag by hand.

[takakawa]

I used HOST_LDFLAGS=-ltermcap ./releasetools/x86_cdimage.sh to build successfully

Have someone found a solution ? I have been trapped by this issue for days.

It seems pull request 301 solves this issue? Can anyone confirm?
