Statically compiled (portable) tmux 2.x

[Justin Garrison]

I am trying to compile tmux 2.0 statically for use on multiple computers with different OSs. I have compiled 1.9 statically in the past without problems by following examples/scripts such as https://gist.github.com/brandondrew/3915551

However, with tmux 2.0 I get the error "open terminal failed: can't find terminfo database" when trying to run it (fedora 23)

Is there a more official way to compile tmux without external libraries or something I can do to fix the error I'm getting?

Try to add the terminfo in the configure step.

See an example here: https://gist.github.com/tessus/5e118d44261a6ab2f198

Seems most likely the ncurses linked into tmux from the box you built on
on is looking in the wrong place for the box you are running it on.
