Hello.

When trying to install nanocurses-1.5.2 on my Fedora Linux system, I am getting the following error:

$ cabal install nanocurses Resolving dependencies... Configuring nanocurses-1.5.2... Preprocessing library nanocurses-1.5.2...

It would be nice to have this buf fixed.

The attached patch fixes the compilation issues. Basically it changes the build type from simple to configure in the cabal file, and it renames the function getline in cbits/utils.{h,c} to mygetline. If appropriate, please release a new version with the fixes. Romildo
