    I have libtermcap.so.2 file in

    /lib/libtermcap.so.2
    /lib64/libtermcap.so.2

    But when I try to open the file it says: "This link cannot be used because its target “/lib64/libncurses.so.5.9” doesn't exist"

    Please let me know any suggestions to resolve this issue.

    Thanks in Advance.
