Python / ncurses

[maros]

I am trying to install python from a depot on HP-UX 11.00.
First I tried to install ncurses (from a depot as well) since it is a run-time dependency for python. After attempting to install ncurses I got an error message that the corequisite "guile.guile-SHLIBS" for fileset "ncurses.ncurses-RUN,r=5.3" cannot be successfully resolved. When I searched the depot archive for guile I found the guile 1.6.0 depot but it is dependent on ncurses (run time dependence). So, I did not even try to install guile. I did try though to install python after the unsuccessful installation of ncurses and I got a message that corequiste "gettext.gettext-SHLIBS cannot be resolved. Can anybody help?

Python requires the following before you can install it.

bzip2
gdbm
gettext
libiconv
ncurses
openssl
readline
tcltk
zlib

If you go to http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/ (The HPUX porting center) you can find all the dependencies for python and the dependencies of those apps, if applicable.
