need libncurses.so

I'm trying to run a program called screen. When I try to execute it, I get this message:

(root@megas)/home/root# screen
/usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libncurses.so'.
Killed

This is an Itanium machine running 11.23.

I've done some hunting around, but can't seem to find this file for HP-UX.

not sure about HP-UX, but.... if 'screen' lives under /usr/local/bin, see if there's /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so

If there's one, make sure that your LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes /usr/local/lib

It may be a little more complicated than that:
PA-RISC: man dld.sl(5)
Itanium: man dld.so(5)
