[SOLVED] Error message when I open eclipse

[SenorRude]

I installed the ADT plugin for eclipse indigo but now I get the following message everytime I launch eclipse:

[2012-02-13 20:13:50 - adb] /home/michael/android-sdks/platform-tools/adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[2012-02-13 20:13:50 - adb] 'adb version' failed!
/home/michael/android-sdks/platform-tools/adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[2012-02-13 20:13:50 - adb] Failed to parse the output of 'adb version'

I am not sure what to do to get rid of this error message. Any tips would be helpful.......Thanks.

Based on the error, you would need the said library.

yum provides libncurses.so.5

ncurses-libs-5.9-2.20110716.fc16.i686 : Ncurses libraries
Repo        : fedora
Matched from:
Other       : libncurses.so.5
