Problem appears to be that the host-ncurses tic only is built with linker RUNPATH vs. the old RPATH. Buildroot's tic is trying to use the system so file. GCC version in Ubuntu 23.04 takes the RPATH flag and makes it a RUNPATH with the builtroot's current default ldflags. Either this or the scripts using buildroot built host programs need to update LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use buildroot's version of dynamic libraries, in this case ncurses.so. Have potential diff at end.

I was able to fix this by forcing all host programs to be build with a flag to use the RPATH's.

(In reply to rpe2101 from comment #1) > .config file is >75kB, so can't attach. You can create a smaller file, called a defconfig: $ make savedefconfig BR2_DEFCONFIG=$(pwd)/my_defconfig And then you can provide the my_defconfig file Regards, Yann E. MORIN.
