Hello, Ive just installed my prefered text
editor, nano, but when im going to run nano, this just appears:

I have nano 2.0.6 installed from packages (not ports) and it works
fine on 6.2.
I also have that library with the same date as my last buildworld:
$ ls -l /lib/*curs*
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 268108 Jan 14 2007 /lib/libncurses.so.6
but do you have libncursesw.so.6 - note the 'w'
The most likely scenario is that he's trying to use a 6-stable
package on 6.2. This something that people tend to get away with,
but is not actually supported.
Either build the port or install the correct package.
I'm tracking 6-STABLE, and I only have /lib/libncurses.so.6.
libcursesw.so.6 is listed as part of the compat6x port, perhaps
Roberth has installed a 7-CURRENT package built with compat6x?
I'm guessing your 6-STABLE wasn't synced all that recently. There's a
test in the nano makefile that make it use the wide (multi-byte
character) version of curses (ie libncursesw) if the 6-stable or
7-current version is sufficiently recent. The fact that an up-to-date
compat6x has libncursesw.so.6 tends to confirm this.
Yes, you are right. I hadn't synced since February.. my, how the time flies!
