Problem Description:
--------------------
I am using the PostgreSQL database with Solaris 2.6 for a research project.
I found your name in the installation guide as someone who has installed
this database on Solaris recently.

We are following the directions in the "PostgreSQL Installation Guide."
After doing the "gmake all" command, we tried connecting to the
database (typing "psql") and we got the following error message:

ld.so.1: postmaster: fatal: libncurses.so.4: open failed: No such file or directory

Unfortunately, we cannot find the file "libncurses.so.4:".

Thanks,

Jon Loflin
