Facing a issue while porting Python3 onto serenityOS.

[ncurses/install] "terminfo.tmp", line 4303, terminal 'mintty': error writing /Users/my-system/Projects/serenity/Build/x86_64/Root/usr/local/share/terminfo/6d/mintty
[ncurses/install] ? tic could not build /Users/my-system/Projects/serenity/Build/x86_64/Root/usr/local/share/terminfo
[ncurses/install] make[1]: *** [install.data] Error 1
[ncurses/install] make: *** [install] Error 2
Error in step ncurses/install (status=2)

First i've executed

$ ./Toolchain/BuildPython.sh

then i've executed:

$ ./packages.sh #Ports/python3/packages.sh

i've installed dependencies like openssl, zlib, libffi.

should i need to install any dependency?

also if possible please share me how to run the Ruby + gcc onto serenity.

I tested this on Debian 13 a couple of weeks ago (but forgot to report back), I didn't experience any issues whatsoever.
Maybe it's a fluke or OS specific? It looks like you're using macOS?

All dependencies are installed automatically by running the ./package.sh in Ports/python3.

I haven't tried Ruby on SerenityOS, but gcc works fine.

It looks like ncurses uses tic from the host OS.

nvm, the installation should fail early if tic is too old.
