SOLVED wezterm config

When opening a new wezterm window or tab, my starship prompt does not show up.
Instead I get the default prompt as defined by /etc/bash.bashrc.
Once I type enter I get my starship promt:

-`                    lenny@archie

[lenny@archie ~]$

lenny archie ~ ❯

This does not happen with ghostty or gnome-console.
It's not a showstopper but I wonder if I configured something wrong.
My wezterm config is pretty basic as you can see here:

local wezterm = require 'wezterm'
local config = wezterm.config_builder()

-- theme
config.color_scheme = 'Dark Pastel (Gogh)'

-- colors
config.colors = {
  foreground = '#f5f5f5',
  background = '#0f0f0f',
}

-- window size
config.initial_rows = 50
config.initial_cols = 140

-- tabs
config.enable_tab_bar = true
config.use_fancy_tab_bar = true

return config

Did I miss something in the docs?

Re: SOLVED wezterm config

Solution:

The wezterm package does doe not include a terminfo file.
I created a pacman hook to download it automatically.

termin-info settings
