The eoe.sw.terminfo name refers to a specific part of the eoe package, which is on the "Foundations 1" CD of IRIX.  You might also need the the eoe_65* stuff from the "Overlays 1" CD for whichever version of IRIX you're running.  (E.g., in my case for 6.5.22m, it's the eoe_6522m files from the 6.5.22 CD set.)  I'm not sure if you'll need the base, the overlay, or both.  

Try opening the base one in swmgr.  If swmgr complains about conflicts, add the version-specific overlay package as an "Additional Distribution".  Then you should be good to go.

IIRC, the full terminfo database isn't installed by default, so you'll have to specifically tell swmgr to install eoe.sw.terminfo and/or the patches.  Look for it in the list of packages shown by swmgr and make sure it is checked.
