Manual compilation fails (the latest 2.6.0 release)

[AngryPhantom]

Hello, I'm using Artix Linux (Arch-based, but without systemd) and I cannot compile hstr manually with ./configure && make. Took the latest tarball from the Releases page.

Compiling from AUR is OK

Here is the output:

gcc -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"hstr\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"hstr\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"2.6.0\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"hstr\ 2.6.0\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"martin.dvorak@mindforger.com\" -DPACKAGE_URL=\"\" -DPACKAGE=\"hstr\" -DVERSION=\"2.6.0\" -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_LIBNCURSESW=1 -DHAVE_LIBM=1 -DHAVE_LIBREADLINE=1 -DHAVE__BOOL=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_MALLOC=1 -DHAVE_MEMSET=1 -DHAVE_STRDUP=1 -DHAVE_STRSTR=1 -I.    --pedantic -Wall -std=c99 -O2 -g -O2 -MT hstr_curses.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/hstr_curses.Tpo -c -o hstr_curses.o hstr_curses.c

make[1]: *** [Makefile:402: hstr_curses.o] Error 1

make: *** [Makefile:408: all-recursive] Error 1

Though ncurses is installed in the system:

pacman -F curses.h
system/ncurses 6.4-1 [installed]
    usr/include/curses.h

I know, I know, why even bother if it's in AUR. But, anyway, just curious how is this even possible?

TIA

P.S. With makepkg from AUR everything is fine. Here's this very excerpt:

The reason it works for the makepg Version from AUR, is that in the build step a small patch is applied to the headers before running configure and make

build() {
cd "$pkgname-$pkgver/build/tarball"
./tarball-automake.sh
cd ../..
sed -i -e "s#<ncursesw/curses.h>#<curses.h>#g" src/include/hstr_curses.h
sed -i -e "s#<ncursesw/curses.h>#<curses.h>#g" src/include/hstr.h
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
}

@ChristianWieden Ah, I see now. Thanks, closing the issue then. Is this patch intended for this very reason in Arch?
