Reference: Curses library not up-to-date

This has come up quite a few time recently....

It seems that the AT&T Unix PC 7300/3B1 has a problem with the installation
of the "curses" diskettes.  There are 2 diskettes that are involved:

	UNIX PC Curses/Terminfo End User Pkg. (Rel. 3.0)
	UNIX PC Curses/Terminfo Dev. Pkg. (Rel. 3.0)

Some people have had to remove and re-install these software packages
several times before it "took".   The only advice is to be persistent.

Also, the installation script will attempt to create a cpio archive of
the "old" curses routines called /usr/lib/Curses.old.  This archive will
most likely end up being truncated.
