249 The libcurses.so.1 listed above is an earlier shared object that pro‐
250 vides the previous version of the X/Open Curses library (Issue 4).
251 There is no binary compatiblity between libcurses.so.1 and
252 libcurses.so.2. This file is provided for backwards compatiblity and
253 will be removed in a future Solaris release. There is no plan to fix
254 any of its defects.
