64-bit shared object
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.
