  25. Check to see if you have the curses library installed:
  26.   ls -l /usr/lib/*curse* /usr/local/lib/*curse* /lib/*curse*
  27.  
  28. If you get three "No such file or directory" errors then
  29. your problem is that you need to install a curses library.
  30. If you do get a hit, but it is for a "libncurses.(mumble)"
  31. library, fix your makefile to link with -lncurses instead
  32. of -lcurses (or add some symbolic links).  Otherwise, I'm
  33. stumped.
