Public bug reported:

There is a lib32ncurses5 package to supply x86 compatibility libraries to amd64 
distros, but there is no lib32ncursesw5 package. This means 32-bit ncurses apps 
running on an amd64 box can't use Unicode (and those that would try to simply 
would refuse to start at all, due to a missing dependency).

This is normally provided by the libncursesw5 package in a x86 Ubuntu
install.

The missing files/symlinks, specifically, would be:

    /lib32/libncursesw.so.5.6
    /lib32/libncursesw.so.5
    /usr/lib32/libncursesw.so

--ryan.
