When I tried to execute the command "make xconfig" I got the following output
rm -f include/asm (cd include; ln -sf asm -i386 asm) make -C scripts knconfig.tk make: *** scripts: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
When I executed the command 'rpm -q ncurses ncurses-devel' I got the following output
ncurses-5.2-8 ncurses-devel-5.2-8
Could you please help me to fix the error. Thanking You. Regards, Srinivas Chavva
