If you have a newer version than it asks for, a quick fix is to make a
symbolic link from libncurses.so.4 to libncurses.so.5. This normally
works if the libraries are backwards compatible, which they usually
are. On my system, libncurses.so.4 *is* a symlink to libncurses.so.5, so
I suspect this would work just fine for you.
Another option is to rebuild the src RPM with "rpm --rebuild", which
would link the program against the version of ncurses that you have.
