The basic problem here is that there are two system libraries that do
essentially the same thing. One is called libtermcap, the other is called
libcurses. Most systems have only one of these (indeed, why have both
when they do the same thing?) and chances are that the RPM you are
installing was built on a system with libtermcap whereas your system has
libcurses...
I can think of no easy solution to your problem. You can try putting
libtermcap.so.2 in /usr/lib, but only the gods know whether it will
work...
Good luck, Frank
