Sure, I have a recent golded that runs on linux. If you are having
trouble running golded on linux I would try a fresh install.
https://github.com/golded-plus/golded-plus
I've downloaded the 64-Bit tarball from there and installed it but I can't
get it to run on my new Manjaro system.
That can be a problem with pre-compiled programs on linux.
Yep, sure can.
First attempt, it complained about missing ncurses5 libs, so I installed
ncurses5-compat-libs from the Manjaro AUR repo.
Second attempt, it compalined about this:
golded: /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5: version `NCURSES_5.0.19991023' not found
(required by golded).
You probably don't need the -compat ncurses. On Slackware I build with ncurses-6.2_20201219 and golded builds fine.
Yeah, that's correct .....

What now?
Did you grab fresh sources from github? If not grab them from the above URL and let us know if the problem persists.
Yes, I grabbed the source and it compiled without errors and my shiny new copy of 'gedlnx' runs as sweet as a nut :))
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Martin
