Hoi Albert, 

Ze zijn hier allemaal met vakantie (Thanksgiving), dus een echt antwoord 
kan nog even duren. Maar voor het geval je verder wilt:


The problem seems to be that the termcap library cannot be found in INSTEP4:

LINK      :            -ltermcap \
LINK      :             -s \
LINK      :            -o /opt/AIPS/31DEC01/LINUX/PREP/AIPSB.EXE
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltermcap
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
LINK      : Status from /usr/local/gcc/bin/g77 is 1
LINK      : Link of    /opt/AIPS/31DEC01/LINUX/PREP/AIPSB.o
LINK      : dies from wimpy compiler


I'm sure there is a more elegant solution, which you will probably be told
by someone from the AIPS group after the holidays (I think you don't really
need the termcap anymore with red hat), but in case you want to continue
now and can find the old termcap libarary you can add this line in your
31DEC02/LINUX/SYSTEM/LDOPTS.SH

[ "$SITE" = XXX ] && LINK="-L/usr/lib/termcap -ltermcap" 

where XXX is your site name and -L/etc points to the proper termcap 
directory

or if ltermcap is already explicitly in your LDOPTS.SH, maybe it will work
when you take it out

Hope this is of any help for now, probably more will follow later.
