Looks like I'm having some issues compiling syncterm on my OBSD system, too. I'm running the latest version, not sure if you are or not, but this is the error blurb that I got in compilation...
Does anybody know if Deuce is still around?

How do you like Proxmox? How's it running on your hardware and what kind
of load are you putting it under? I'm thinking of looking into some virtualization solutions of the same sort at some point here, myself...
You can catch him in #synchronet (irc.synchro.net) and the sourceforge suppo (tickets) for syncterm. I've pasted the link before here, recently.
You need the wide (w) version of ncurses installed: http://wiki.synchro.net/install:nix#errors
I like it a lot. I run ESXi at work, and it's a pain in the butt and picky about hardware. With Proxmox, it'll run on anything that Deboan runs on, it seems.
I've got an i7, 16 GB of RAM and an SSD, and it can run a couple of small VM just fine. I don't have anything running full time on it yet, but it feels l it's got some power to spare.

OpenBSD used to run on a ton of hardware, are there still ports for
lots of non-intel systems?

Just curious, but does he frequent DOVE-Net any more?

I know I'm pushing my luck here, but do you have any idea where to find the 'dev' version of the recent ncurses for OpenBSD?

Anyway let me know if this is the same error message you're getting
or not, we can get some information together for Deuce wherever he's at these days. :)

Hey Sprite,
Yes, this is exactly the error message that I was getting when I was trying to install syncterm too.

Alright, I reached out to Deuce on SourceForge and um... Forgive my fau memory but I think one other place, too. Anyway, as Digital Man said, hopefully he gets in touch with me and/or you (if you comment @ https://sourceforge.net/p/syncterm/tickets/41/ he may send you a line as wel regarding this soon here...
Can't believe I couldn't find the damn development library for the wide ncurses support anywhere for OpenBSD... Even with as limited as the support for OBSD seems at times that just doesn't seem right. I wonder if I'm missi something really obvious...

Wow, thanks for looking after this. I have tried compiling that patch and it still throwing me some errors. I haven't saved the logs but I'll try to do i again. Though honestly the kermit approach sort of works for me. Haha!
