https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6907421 looks like its available in epel
I got this working by copying libncurses.so.5 and libtinfo.so.5 from ubuntu 22.04 and added export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:${serverfiles}"
I should be able to implement a fix for this.
My other question is whats the best way to run bf1942? As its difficult to find decent details on how to run the client
Another suggestion for this is to run the LinuxGSM docker container
Closing as solution is to enable EPEL
User story
As a user I want that the server starts without a missing library error.

Linux distro
RedHat 9
Command
command: start
Further information
OS is AlmaLinux9 x64, which is a clone of RHEL9. Needed package would be ncurses-compat-libs:i686, which is not available The x86_64-Version of ncurses-compat-libs does not help, as a Symlink created by myself from /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 to /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.5 creates a
wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
error in the outputSo bf1942 is broken on EL9, I haven't found a source for libncurses5:i686 yet.
Maybe you can help?
