I can't get Renderman to work in Blender 3.6.5 on linux (Red Hat). #699

Hi, I'm having trouble getting Renderman to work on RHEL 9, I've got it to work on Windows 11 with the same verison numbers.

So now, when I try and configure the plug inside the Blender settings, the plugin can't seem to find Renderman ever when I provide it with it's actual location using the drop-down. I'm also getting a notification underneath saying Error in RMANTREE. Reload addon to reset When running Blender from the command line I'm getting these errors:

[ERROR] (MainThread) RenderManForBlender.rfb_logger _get_build_info: Exception trying to get rman version: Command '['/opt/pixar/RenderManProServer-25.2/bin/prman', '-version']' returned non-zero exit status 127.
[ERROR] (MainThread) RenderManForBlender.rfb_logger _guess_rmantree: Error loading addon.  RMANTREE /opt/pixar/RenderManProServer-25.2 is not valid.  Correct RMANTREE setting in addon preferences.

Anyone got any idea what's going on here? The path I'm providing is correct.

Solved it. For anyone with this problem, its due to libtinfo.so.5 its been upgraded to libtinfo.so.6 in RHEL 9 so you need to install ncurses-compat-libs to get the old version back.
