Since ncurses is built before psmisc in chapter 6, chapter 5 ncurses should be
irrelevant. Could you check that /usr/lib/libncurses.so exist and that
it is an ascii file containing "INPUT(-lncursesw)" ?

If not, I suspect you have not run all the commands at the end of the ncurses
page (I mean all the commands except the commands in the "Note", which are not
needed).
