<para><screen><userinput>chmod 755 /usr/lib/*.&ncurses-version;</userinput></screen></para>
<para>Move the libraries to the <filename>/lib</filename> directory,
where they're expected to reside:</para>

<para>Since the libaries have been moved to
<filename>/lib</filename>, a few symlinks are currently pointing
towards non-existing files. Create the following symlinks to
account for this:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>ln -sf libncurses.a /usr/lib/libcurses.a &amp;&amp;
ln -sf ../../lib/libncurses.so.5 /usr/lib/libncurses.so &amp;&amp;
ln -sf ../../lib/libncurses.so.5 /usr/lib/libcurses.so</userinput></screen></para>
