Well I don't have a package actually called this. But I do have these installed??... ncurses-base (1.9.9g-8.8) ncurses-bin (1.9.9g-8.8) ncurses3.4 (1.9.9g-8.8) ncurses-term (1.9.9g-8.8) ncurses3.4-dev (1.9.9g-8.8) > Moral of the story: oldlibs is only for programs that you don't have the > source for. Anything else, you should link against glibc2 based libraries. OK -- Nidge Jones
