Dear OpenFOAM developers and user

I have been trying to compile the OpenFOAM 1.3 development version.

I have followed the build instruction religiously and it works for the compilation of OpenFOAM 1.4.1 including the compilation of paraview 2.4.4.

When i follow the same steps for the OpenFOAM 1.3 development version I always get stuck with these error

------------------------------------------------

The forum suggested that there is an error related to CMakeLists.txt in the 01-05-2007 version of OF 1.3. but i have already corrected that issue.

Please help me as i badly need this version...

With Best Regards

Thanks Srinath

As I understand that solves the first error:

cannot find -ltermcap
-----------------

Could you please comment on the other errors:

-->make: *** [Make/linuxAMD64Gcc4DPDebug/foamToEnsight.o] Error 1

--> cannot find -lFoamX

Thanks alot
