Microstation 95 and libncurses.so.2.0

Project:

You get an error message such as

setup: can't load library 'libncurses.so.2.0´ while trying to install Microstation 95 using setup.

Background:

On SuSE Linux the new libncurses.so.3.0 library is included. This library has been improved and enhanced. Normally all programs that have been designed to libncurses.so.2.0 should run with the new lib.

Solution:

Create the following link in /lib

ln -s libncurses.so.3.0 libncurses.so.2.0

NOTE: Versions of SuSE Linux since 6.0 are handled slightly differently. Use the following command:

ln -s ../usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libncurses.so.3.0 /lib/libncurses.so.2.0

In either case, after creating the link, you must run the program SuSEconfig before you try to install Microstation 95.
