Unable to find ncurses library

  • 772

I've run into a problem with Wine/winetricks, where I get the following error:

Wine cannot find the ncurses library (libncurses.so.6).

However, running sudo apt install libncurses6 just gives me a notification that the package is already installed

Running 18.10

wine winetricks ncurses

    Wine may need 32-bit library.

    You can install it with

    sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386 libncurses6:i386

    and then retry.
