Hi,

Thanks for reporting the bug. This certainly looks like a linking issue. I'll fix and provide the updates for PostgreSQL 13 at the earliest.

Dear Andres, dear list,

it's just only llvmjit.so which (weirdly) links to libncurses.6.dylib here in EDBs postgresql-13.9 build - nothing else.

Neither plpgsql.so nor libpq.dylib reference libncurses.6.dylib - to answer your specific question about them.

Since I agree that this is no classic pgsql bug at all - I too wonder how to lure someone at EDB on this matter.

There  seems no community support mail - just options for users owning a 'plan' ( I at least couldn't figure one out ).

But it too seems that EDB staff lurks in here on a regular basis - so my hope was to have them pick it up from here ;)

FWIW - I'll CC Sandeep Thakkar (from former issue #16460) in good hope to get things sorted.

Thankyou!

cheers,

Frank Reppin

That looks like an issue with the specific build - you're going to have to
take that up with EDB.

It's pretty odd that llvmjit.so is linking to ncurses. Looks like some
compiler flags might have been injected in a too broad way.

Are other libraries, e.g. plpgsql.so and libpq.dylib also referencing ncurses?
