Hey Benny!
BP> /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so is just an ascii file :)
Not here. It is a symlink to /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6 which is a symlink to /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6.5 on my new system and /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6.4 on the systems I have yet to upgrade. I don't have a /usr/lib64 directory as everything is 64 bit. On the fidonet node this is what file has to say about it;
I only tried compiling fmail on the newest glibc-2.40 based system but if this continues to be an issue I will try the same on a yet to be upgraded ncurse-6.4/glibc-2.39 box which there are currently 3 of here. They are all x86_64.
Life is good,
Maurice
