• lost libpanelw.so.5 file

    From ALAN BECK@1:135/392 to ALL on Mon Jan 16 10:09:58 2023
    HI,

    I am rebuilding OpenXP since I had to get a bigger hard drive.

    The libpanelw.so.5 file eludes me. I am running Ubuntu Linux.

    Can someone point it out to me?

    I am stuck on telneting into BBSes for the moment.

    Cheers,
    Alan

    Is that file part of ncurses? Try looking for an ncurses version 5 package.

    That's not so bad, is it? :)

    You need to install 'libncursesw5'
