ncurses-5.6-8 and libform.so.5

So upgrading to the above ncurses seems to remove libform.so.5.  This breaks an application for me.  Is there a reason this file is removed?  Is there something I can do to restore it or must I downgrade?

Did you try to recompile this application?

Yes.  It is a ruby gem.  sup, in fact.  I removed and reinstalled, but it keeps looking for that file.  I've even tried making a soft link from libform.so to libform.so.5, but no good.

Reinstalling won't work. You need to rebuild it.

I think I had the same problem (a couple of days ago?!?)- anyway, I just re-installed the ncurses gem, and sup started right up again. Hope that helps.
