Hi Michael,

I also installed raggle 4.0-2 and get the same error so it is not
raggle's fault.  So it must be something on ncurses but I can't figure
out what.  What sould I remove/install/reinstall?

Thanks a lot!!

Jose

said that, the only way i can reproduce this bug is by removing
ncurses.rb:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rm /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/ncurses.rb
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ raggle
 Raggle: Loading config...
 Raggle: Loading feed list...
 Raggle: Loading theme...
 /usr/bin/raggle:4221:in `init': uninitialized constant
 Raggle::Interfaces::NcursesInterface::Ncurses (NameError)
       from /usr/bin/raggle:5613:in `main'
       from /usr/bin/raggle:6656

so it seems that you either have a ruby version in your path for which
no ncurses library has been installed or some files the libncurses
package includes are missing.

bye,
   - michael
