    Given that ClearCase is supported on Linux variants that do not have ncurses6 as an option, and that there is one and only one Linux x86 binary set, it may be somewhere between difficult and impossible to implement this without eliminating support for older versions of Red hat, CentOS, SuSE, etc.
