NOTES

The libcurses.so.1 listed above is an earlier shared object that
provides the previous version of the X/Open Curses library (Issue 4).
There is no binary compatibility between libcurses.so.1 and
libcurses.so.2. This file is provided for backwards compatibility and
will be removed in a future release of the operating system. There is
no plan to fix any of its defects.
