  • ncurses-compat-libs for RHEL 9

    Posted on

    Hi,
    I'd like to know if there is any way for me to somehow get the ABI version 5 ncurses libs provided by the linked packedge to install on RHEL 9.1?

    Link:https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/ncurses-compat-libs/6.1-9.20180224.el8/x86_64/fd431d51/package

    I need it to run an application(Xilinx Vivado) on RHEL 9.1 that was only certified on RHEL 8.6.
    The only mess up is with the shared libraries and apparently I can't trick ldconfig ,don't want to try to much as it cam quickly become messy ,to get a pure libtinfo.so.5 to load.

    The RHEL 8.6 rpm as expected won't install outright since it wants a downgraded ncurses-base.

    I haven't --skip-broken installed it yet,but would there be major problems?

    If i want to port/update dependencies of this library to RHEL9.1 , what would be the steps?

    Thank you.
