 This means that /usr/lib/libncursesw.so is broken.  Almost
certainly, this is a broken symlink - we installed the library in
/usr/lib and then moved it to /lib.

 Use 'ls -l {/usr,}/lib/libncursesw.so*'
to see which symlink(s) are missing or dangling.

 You ought to see that /lib/libncursesw.so.5 symlinks to
libncursesw.so.5.9, and that /usr/lib/libncursesw.so symlinks to
../../lib/libncursesw.so.5 : i.e. the link from .so in /usr/lib goes
via /lib/libncursesw.so.5 to /lib/libncursesw.so.5.9

 I'm guessing that the link in /usr/lib is broken.  Please take
another look at the many instructions in section 6.21.1 - either you
missed the instruction, or you mistyped it.
