I am new in Asterisk and Linux too. I am using Linux Distribution â€œUBUNTU 8.x â€œ (linux kernel ver 2.6 )
When I try to configure the Asterisk (ver 1.6)
./configure
Following error is encountered
configure: error: *** termcap support not found

now please tell me where to download and how to install â€œlibtermcap-develâ€

when i use sudo apt-get install libtermcap-devel
error showing:
Couldn’t find package libtermcap-devel
i think there will be some different name for this package.

thanks for your reply.
