ncdu stable is now version 2.3 already and faster than 1.19 but a AL2023 build environment does not support zig yet. It will be worth your while to look into gdu which is written in go. https://github.com/dundee/gdu The RPM from there can be installed on AL2023 x86_64 and aarch64 with rpm src available if you want to rebuild it yourself.

We use Amazon Linux as a platform for enterprise applications and we can't afford to compile anything from scratch there. ncdu is extremely useful piece of debugging utility and should be available from standard OS repositories and supported by OS vendor.

It doesn't have to be the recent version. One from Fedora is sufficient.

@daniejstriata @stewartsmith #75 was created on Jan 5, 2022. Is there any chance, after 1.5 year, to add this package?
