Running BurnInTest ARM Linux v5 on Ubuntu 24.04 (ARM64)

[AdamGao]

I am currently trying to run BurnInTest Linux ARM v5(command-line version: `bit_cmd_line_aarch64`)
on Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS (ARM64 architecture). The software launches but immediately crashes due to a missing `libtinfo.so.5`.

Since `libtinfo.so.5` is not available via `apt install` under Ubuntu 24.04, I manually downloaded the `.deb` package for `libtinfo5` (version 5.9), extracted it, and copied the `libtinfo.so.5.9` binary to `/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/`.
I also created a symbolic link named `libtinfo.so.5`.

However, after doing this, the program now crashes with a **segmentation fault**.

Could you please advise:
1. What packages or libraries are required to successfully run BurnInTest v5 for Linux ARM on Ubuntu 24.04 ARM64?
2. Is BurnInTest officially compatible with Ubuntu 24.04?

Supported platforms are on this page

At the moment the list is,

• CentOS 7
• Fedora 32
• Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, 20.04
• Raspberry Pi OS
• Linux 4 Tegra 32.4

but we are probably due to update the list.

Details are on this page to install libcurses5 and resolve the libtinfo5 error.

Ubuntu 24.04/25.04 have now been tested and are supported (once libcurses5 is installed).
