Hi there!

The short question is in the subject, here is some detail:

Compiling adom from source seems to go fine, but then when I run it,
it dumps core (which I do not yet know how to analyze)  Is this
easy to do?

Installing adom from the rpm (adom-099g15-3.i586.rpm) seems simple
enough, requires libc.so.5 (libc-5.3.12-34mdk.i586.rpm) but then
when I run it, I see "Error opening terminal: xterm-color."  strace
reveals that adom is looking for ~/.terminfo/x/xterm-color and
/usr/lib/terminfo/x/xterm-color.  I did an rpm -ql of xterm* and
found that I have an /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color
which I then copied to the obove locations (changing XTerm to
xterm:-) but that gives the same error message from adom, and strace
says: 
open("/root/.terminfo/x/xterm-color", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/terminfo/x/xterm-color", O_RDONLY) = 3
read(3, "! $XFree86: ", 12)             = 12
close(3)                                = 0
write(2, "Error opening terminal: xterm-co"..., 37Error opening
terminal: xterm-color.
) = 37
_exit(1)

Is that enough information to identify the problem?
