[daip] AIPS on 64-bit LINUX (FC6)

[Leonardo Testi]

Hello,
    I was just wondering whether you had time to look at this since  
August. I just retried the binary installation of AIPS and got stuck  
with FILAIP again, with the following error:

Starting up FILAIP (RELEASE OF 31DEC07)
/home/ltesti/31DEC07/LINUX/LOAD/FILAIP.EXE: error while loading  
shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No  
such file or directory
AipsWiz: Error: FILAIP did not work, or there's a missing file!
AipsWiz: Error: This may mean that FILAIP did not work (it should have
AipsWiz: Error: created it and many other files in that area).
AipsWiz: Error: You can try running it by hand after (a) dotting the
AipsWiz: Error: LOGIN.SH file or sourcing the LOGIN.CSH file; and
AipsWiz: Error: (b) Typing 'RUN FILAIP'.  You will then be asked for
AipsWiz: Error: two parameters.  Use
8 2

...I understand that you cannot support everything on Earth, I am  
just checking... ;-)...

Cheers,
         Leonardo
