The code in patch-5.2-20011222.sh is as follows

NCURSES_TMP-temp$$
NCURSES_SRC="ncurses-5.2-20011222.patch.gz"
NCURSES_DST="ncurses-5.2-20011222.tar.gz"

rm -f $NCURSES_SRC
trap "rm -f $NCURSES_TMP $NCURSES_SRC $NCURSES_DST" 0 1 2 5 15

then the $NCURSES_TMP file is set up to contain the mmencoded 
ncurses-5.2-20011222.tar.gz file.

then occurs the following

uudecode $NCURSES_TMP
gzip -dc $NCURSES_SRC | patch -p1

However, there is no $NCURSES_SRC file available at all.


uudecode $NCURSES_TMP
