+<para>First fix two tiny bugs:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../&ncurses-etip-patch;
+patch -Np1 -i ../&ncurses-vsscanf-patch;</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>The first patch corrects the <filename>etip.h</filename> header file, and
+the second patch prevents some compiler warnings on the use of deprecated
+headers.</para>
+
+<para>Now prepare Ncurses for compilation:</para>

+<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --with-shared \
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--without-debug</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>Compile the package:</para>

+<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>Install the package:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>Give the Ncurses libraries execute permissions:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>chmod 755 /usr/lib/*.&ncurses-version;</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>And fix a library that shouldn't be executable:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>chmod 644 /usr/lib/libncurses++.a</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>Move the libraries to the <filename>/lib</filename> directory,

+
+<para>Since the libraries have been moved to
+<filename>/lib</filename>, a few symlinks are currently pointing
+towards non-existing files. Recreate those symlinks:</para>

+ln -sf libncurses.so /usr/lib/libcurses.so</userinput></screen>
