I believe I have a problem in my libcurses/libncurses configuration. I have a woody system, upgraded to from potatoo, upgraded to from slink. Following is my directory structure showing the relevant files.
from /lib lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Aug 26 1999 libcurses.so.1 -> libcurses.so.1.0.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 52641 May 18 1995 libcurses.so.1.0.0xo lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Jul 5 2000 libtermcap.so.2 -> libtermcap.so.2.0.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10500 Feb 3 2000 libtermcap.so.2.0.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 242644 Oct 30 1998 libncurses.so.3.4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 May 27 2000 libncurses.so.4 -> libncurses.so.4.2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 238700 Mar 5 2000 libncurses.so.4.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Nov 27 08:26 libncurses.so.5 -> libncurses.so.5.0 ----- from /usr/lib lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jul 5 2000 libcurses.a -> libncurses.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Jul 5 2000 libcurses.so -> libncurses.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 25 22:59 libcurses.so.1 -> /lib/libncurses.so.5 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 372674 Mar 5 2000 libncurses.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jul 5 2000 libncurses.so -> /lib/libncurses.so.4 I think this is wrong because I am not able to launch an application (octree - cad program) which I know works for other debian users, and which I believe to be properly installed on my system. If someone can suggest simply how to modify by hand the files, I would appreciate it. Otherwise, Should I apt-get -purge remove ncurses-base ncurses-bin ncurse-term, and then apt-get install those same packages Any help much appreciated. -- Giulio Morgan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
