There is one way, Ken. If I used the directions in Ch. 6 for perl
instead of Ch. 5. This I could have done inadvertently. But I remember
typing "podlator" and "podman." Oh well. But as to how the ncurses
libraries got there???? Dunno. Everything else I've done is
peachy--except vim. I'll just move the ncurses libraries back to
/tools/lib and see what happens. If I'm not mistaken, by the time I get
to the big stuff in Ch. 6, all the support stuff has been built and
/tools is irrelevant for them. Thanks.
