I am trying to launch a commercial app on my up to date Manjaro system. Apparently it is missing a library that this app needs (libtinfo.so.5). So I "installed" that library but I keep getting the same error.
The errors I get are all of this variety:
error: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I have tried the following:
1) I first created a path where the library lives, and added that to my shell that I launch from via the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/apps/studio/isotropix/clarisse/lib
ll /opt/apps/studio/isotropix/clarisse/lib
total 728

But I still get the same errors.
I then added this library directly to my /usr/lib directory.
/usr/lib$ ls -l libtinfo.so.5*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Dec 13 12:16 libtinfo.so.5 -> /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5.9
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 295880 Dec 13 12:15 libtinfo.so.5.9
But still the same errors.
So I tried enabling the debug to see where the app is searching and I get this (this just a sub-section of the output):

From this it looks like it is actually looking in both of those locations, but I can't tell if it is actually finding anything. Based on the fact that it does not stop searching even after it seems to check a valid path leads me to believe that something else is going on, but I have no idea what. Maybe it finds the file but rejects it because it is the wrong version? But I would have expected a different error message then.
Any clues would be greatly appreciated!
