I've a problem to compile i386 grub-emu

[Felix Zielcke]

I have a x86_64 Kernel and want to have a 32bit grub-emu so modules are working.
Even in a 32bit chroot running a shell with linux32 so uname -m reports i686 I can't get it to compile

Btw. make distclean didn't worked for my already used 64bit grub2 SVN directory I needed to do a clean checkout

You need to install ncurses and the -dev package.  Which distribution
do you use?

I wonder why this got through the autoconf test.

I have libncurses5-dev installed
I used debootstrap --variant=buildd that did it I think

Rerunning ./configure with --enable-grub-emu and then make grub-emu did work

Maybe it's possible to disallow compiling grub-emu if --enable-grub-emu wasn't given to configure?

It's possible, but it will make the makefiles more complex.  I think the
focus should be on refactoring the build system.  Then making such
improvements could be done in one place, not for every platform.
