System: NetBSD slingblade 1.4.1 NetBSD 1.4.1 (SLINGBLADE) #0: Sat Feb 26 04:53:48 MST 2000 root@slingblade:/mnt/ashanti/netbsd/NetBSD-1.4.1/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/SLINGBLADE sparc


>Description:

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.4.1/sparc/All/kdebase-1.1.2.tgz

The kdebase-1.1.2 for NetBSD 1.4.1/sparc binary package contains executables that were
dynamically linked with ncurses.  Since ncurses isn't a prereq for this package, some 
of the executables won't run.  An example is `kvt', the KDE terminal emulator.

>How-To-Repeat:

slingblade# which kvt
/usr/X11R6/bin/kvt

slingblade# kvt
/usr/libexec/ld.so: kvt: libncurses.so.4.2: No such file or directory           

>Fix:

Recompile, this time making sure to link with static libs.
