I created a CentOS6.6 container inside docker under the latest Manjaro Linux

and then compile the tig git source code inside the CentOS6.6 docker container, and then package the binary and dependencies into appimage file using linuxdeploy.appimage.

But when I try to run the tig.appimage file under Manjaro, it failed saying "Error opening terminal: screen-256color.", and it is running without problem inside the CentOS6.6 docker container.

Is there anything I can do to fix the error and make it work under Manjaro?

FYI:
the tig.appimage dependencies are:

  • libncurses.so.5
  • libtinfo.so.5
    both are packaged into the appimage file from CentOS6.6

Have you fixed your problem ? If not, then, as you package libncurses.so.5 and libtinfo.so.5 into the appimage, you should try to add as well /usr/share/terminfo/s/screen-256color.

Sorry, already build tig.2.5.1.appimage months ago which can be running on Manjaro, but already forgot how I solve this issue. Got a new laptop, built a new dev env.

You can try if you want to build a tig.appimge
