Well, it is a problem when building PHP because they use thier own
special system:

libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/lib/libpanel.la' was moved.
grep: /usr/src/ncurses/ncurses-5.4/.inst/usr/lib/libncurses.la: No such 
file or directory
/usr/bin/sed: can't read 
/usr/src/ncurses/ncurses-5.4/.inst/usr/lib/libncurses.la: No such file 
or directory
libtool: link: 
`/usr/src/ncurses/ncurses-5.4/.inst/usr/lib/libncurses.la' is not a 
valid libtool archive
make: *** [ext/ncurses/ncurses.la] Error 1

was missing a /usr, this is better:

zcat /etc/setup/libncurses-devel.lst.gz | grep "\.la$" | \
   (cd /; xargs perl -pi.orig \
    -e 's|/usr/src/ncurses/ncurses-5.4/.build/lib|/usr/lib|g; \
     s|/usr/src/ncurses/ncurses-5.4/.inst/usr/lib|/usr/lib|g' )
