Perhaps this is offtopic. Perhaps not. I am trying to get GRASS running on a debian system. My problem isn't unique, but I want to find out if anyone running debian has solved it.
The problem I am getting with existing precompiled binaries, is failure to load the curses library libcurses.so.1.

I would like to ask whether this would cause any problem, or what other solutions have been found, short of recompiling. (I would like to compile grass, but my system is, as usually the case when trying to keep up to date with debian, in limbo. This brings up another question---is it safe to begin compiling with libc6? When will it be? Does the dual library compilation route work? Ahhh sh.... ). Alan Davis -- "I consider that the golden rule requires Alan E.
