>Description:
I cannot get BitTornado-0.3.14 to work, it crashes with this message:

-bash-3.00# btdownloadcurses.py foo.torrent
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/pkg/bin/btdownloadcurses.py", line 402, in ?
    curses_wrapper(run, errlist, argv[1:])
  File "/usr/pkg/lib/python2.4/curses/wrapper.py", line 44, in wrapper
    return func(stdscr, *args, **kwds)
  File "/usr/pkg/bin/btdownloadcurses.py", line 366, in run
    if not dow.initFiles(old_style = True):

    return self.storagewrapper.old_style_init()

    self.fieldwin.addnstr(0, 0, self.file, self.fieldw, curses.A_BOLD)
_curses.error: addnstr() returned ERR

I have tried to re-install it and also tried with python23, but with same result. I have upgraded to the pkgsrc branch pkgsrc-2005Q4.
>How-To-Repeat:
I'm not sure, but for me I only have to install BitTornado and then try to run btdownloadcurses.py with a torrent file.
