  • 1.  Request : ncdu

    Posted Tue March 21, 2023 09:25 AM

    I was wondering if "ncdu" could be added to the packages repository. The pre-requisites for the package all seem to pretty much already be in the repository. NCDU is a ncurses, du command that allows a user to see where in the directory, going down, their directory/filesystem is full.

    It's a simple tool, for users.

    +1 We've been able to compile and use this tool on AIX without issues (on some systems we had to tweak TERM a bit).

    Hi Spencer.
    Here's what I did to compile the ncdu on AIX 7100-05-04-1914 and 7300-01-02-2320:
    # wget https://dev.yorhel.nl/download/ncdu-1.18.1.tar.gz
    # gunzip -c ncdu-1.18.1.tar.gz | tar xvf -
    # dnf install gcc ncurses-devel # if you dont have installed yet the dnf, you can use the yum
    # rpm -qa | grep ncurses # just to show the packages you should have
    ncurses-devel-6.4-1.ppc
    ncurses-6.4-1.ppc
    # cd ncdu-1.18.1
    # ./configure
    # make
    # make install
    # ln -s /usr/local/bin/ncdu /usr/bin/ncdu

    hope this help.

    Hi,
    I need to add for ncdu 1.20:
    export CFLAGS='-maix64'
    before compiling on 7300-02-01-2346 with gcc 10.3.0
