The first error report is after install aur/ncurses5-compat-libs and the second error report is after remove aur/ncurses5-compat-libs

Re: [solved]error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 12 jun 11:53 /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 -> /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.5
$ ls -l /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.5

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 412808 12 jun 11:53 /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.5.9
$

It looks like ./tnt wants and older version of ncurses .
I can't find a tnt pacakge in repos and aur page for ncurses5-compat-libs doesn't list doesn't it also .
Where does ./tnt come from ?

Both versions tnt is looking for are supported, maybe some buildtime option needs to be added / removed .

Could you try running it on a few other distros like debian,  *buntu , fedora to see if this is an arch-specific issue ?
(no need to install them , just use live media)

Re: [solved]error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5

Try rebuilding `ncurses5-compat-libs` without the configure option "--enable-widec".

Re: [solved]error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5

@a821 "ncurses5-compat-libs" maintainer here. Do you think I should remove "--enable-widec" from the PKGBUILD. I'm not familiar with what "--enable-widec" does, but it seems "ncurses" package use it. According to https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/vi … urses.html enabling it is correct.

I suppose tnt should be rebuilt with wide characters enabled and then it would be fine.

Re: [solved]error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5

@invidian: I do not think you should remove wide characters support, as this will likely break a lot of reverse dependencies. Also, I didn't check whether this is an actual solution, just saw that `ldd tnt` didn't complain about missing libraries (which is why I asked to try this on #6). I would wait for feedback from OP (OP didn't say anything in the AUR comments).

But I use this PKGBUILD works fine
