I am trying to build vim on Fedora23 from source referring to this post, but I still can't build it.
Here is my results.
$ sudo dnf install -y ncurses-devel
$ sudo dnf install -y gcc make autoconf ncurses-devel perl-devel perl-ExtUtils-Embed ruby-devel python-devel python3-devel lua-devel luajit-devel gtk2-devel libXt-devel
$ git clone https://github.com/vim-jp/vim.git vim74
$ cd vim74
$ CFLAGS=-fPIC ./configure \
> --prefix=$HOME/local \
> --with-features=huge \
> --with-tlib=ncurses \
> --enable-multibyte \
> --enable-rubyinterp \
> --enable-pythoninterp \
> --enable-perlinterp \
> --enable-fontset \
> --enable-python3interp \
> --enable-luainterp
configure: creating cache auto/config.cache
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
:
:
checking --with-tlib argument... ncurses
checking for linking with ncurses library... configure: error: FAILED
How do I fix it?
I executed same commands as this post but got different result. Do that mean that ncurses is not installed ?
$ ll /usr/lib/libncurs*
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libncurs*: No such file or directory
$ ll /usr/lib64/libncurs*

Thank you.

See this?
configure:10664: gcc -o conftest -fPIC -L. -Wl,-z,relro -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld -fstack-protector -rdynamic -Wl,-export-dynamic -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-z,relro -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c -lselinux -lncurses >&5

There's your problem. The quick answer is to do:
sudo dnf install /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld
which will add the redhat-rpm-confg package which provides that file.
As for why that's happening... I'm actually not quite sure. It is something you'll see if you look in the RPM opt flags, but it didn't when I just ran configure as you listed in your question. Something else is probably going on in your environment... I'm just not sure what.
