[Alpine-info] Can't compile V2.25 or 2.26 on Rocky 9.2

[David Morris via Alpine-info]

FYI Rocky is a linux distribution based on RH Enterprise Linux. Centos
used to fill that role, but RedHat turned Centos into an advanced release
sandbox...

What I see running configure:
   ...
   checking for setupterm in -ltinfo... no
   checking for setupterm in -lncurses... no
   checking for setupterm in -lcurses... no
   checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no
   checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no
   configure: error: Terminfo/termcap not found
(in case it matters, this is from the 2.26 attempt)

ncurses-6.2.8 is installed and the infocmp command exists and works.

After some digging and comparing my systems, I noticed that ncurses is
installed in /usr/lib64/ which suggests the problem is associated with the
fact my system is a 64 bit system and hence a minimal /usr/lib/

I tried looking at 'configure' but it has been too many years since I did
any shell programming so I made no progress there. I previously tried to
add support for the 32 bit programs but I think what I found was
incomplete.

I'd be happy to test any updates to configure, but have to put this on the
back burner for not.

Thanks,
   David
