 I'm not able to duplicate this in my Fedora 36 environment. (Mine is a
 bit different than yours in that mine is installed unprivileged locally
 to my user account, but I'm not sure that matters here.)
 
 Are you building ncurses from pkgsrc because you're trying to keep as
 isolated an environment as possible from the base system? In my case,
 I'm simply linking against libncurses from /lib64/libncurses.so.6, as
 I'm not so concerned about that. (So I have the ncurses-devel package
 installed from Fedora.)
