Description
The Community Server binary tarball packages service multiple operating systems. The mariadb client binary is dynamically compiled against ncurses 5, RHEL8 and RHEL9 have ncurses 6 installed by default. When the client binary is executed users get the following error:
mysql: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
|
The solution to this issue is to install the package ncurses-compat-libs which is available for RHEL8 and RHEL9 in the EPEL repository and provides the ncurses.so.5 library:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6907421
We should update the README.md or INSTALL-BINARY files to include this information for customers running RHEL8 or RHEL9.
