Scilab-bin: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5: file too short

Hi there, I’m trying to install MatLab and Scilab, but in both instalation showed me the above error. The first time I got that error the console told me that the library didn’t exist, so I linked the libtinfo.so.5 to libtinfo.so.6 that was the solution for some users in other forums. But now I have this new error.

I opened libtinfo.so.5 whit Kate and showed onli 1 line of code <INPUT(libncursesw.so.6)> that is all, compared to libtinfo.so.6 that have like 1500 lines.

I’m newbie in Manjaro and Linux world. please help!

with aur, first read comments :wink: (if you use -bin ?)

so link is bad … what was our command ?

thank you, i’m gonna check it!

Hey, I’m having issues instaling ncurses5
I’m running to install it but gives me this error:

I read this post Two PGP Keyrings for Package Management in Arch Linux | Allan McRae but when I redo the makepkg gives me the same error. I assume that the key is 702353E0F7E48EDB.

not change PKGBUILD but insert key in manjaro
it’s in comments and wiki arch


it is possible that pamac automatically imports the key

pamac build "package_aur"
