Must correct myself here: It seems that tpp thinks it can't find the ncurses bindings if it can't load them, even if they are there, but broken. Nevertheless, since the above case is on Arch Linux, it might have the same cause as on Ubuntu, but this issue is distribution-specific since it's not present in the current upstream (or development versions) and hence needs to be fixed per distribution, e.g. by patching or, if sufficient, by recompiling ruby-ncurses.

So since the ruby-ncurses package is built from the same source (just maybe a different version), it's either a bug in the version shipped with Ubuntu 18.04 or something in the way Ubuntu builds that package. (As mentioned before: I can't reproduce this in Debian Unstable where Ubuntu takes most of the packages, at least tpp, from.) And if you look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ruby-ncurses you probably see the reason for it: #1775673 ruby-ncurses is broken in ubuntu 18.04 #1787763 ruby-ncurses is broken: try ruby -e 'require "ncurses"' Will probably merge all these bug reports.

I can't reproduce this issue in a minimal Debian Unstable chroot, so it might be an ubuntu-specific issue. And https://github.com/cbbrowne/tpp/issues/9 looks unrelated for me: Completely different error message, C linking error (Github) vs ruby module location error (here). ** Bug watch added: github.com/cbbrowne/tpp/issues #9 https://github.com/cbbrowne/tpp/issues/9 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783564 Title: There is no Ncurses-Ruby package installed which is needed by TPP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tpp/+bug/1783564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
