I D/L'ed a few of the RPMS from the contrib directory, including 
cthugha-0.7-1.i386.rpm.  I installed cthugha and tried to run it, and it 
is looking for libncurses.so.2.0, which it can't find as the only 
libncurses.so.* on the system is libncurses.so.3.0, which itself is a 
symbolic link to libncurses.so.1.9.9e.  My question is if I want to run 
this or other older packagages  that require libncurses.so.2.0 can I just 
install whatever RPMS it is in and have BOTH versions without running into 
conflicts.  OR do I need to get source-code for cthugha and recompile it 
so it works on my RH4.0 system? OR do I need to do something else??

Thanks!

-Brian
