Installation failed in ubuntu 24.04 lts

@mmansouri86 There is something you can do, this is what worked for me: First, you need to manually download the libtinfo5_6.4-2_amd64 that is a dependency for the libncurses5 package. You can download it using curl to: curl -O http://launchpadlibrarian.net/648013231/libtinfo5_6.4-2_amd64.deb install it with dpkg: sudo dpkg -i libtinfo5_6.4-2_amd64.deb then, download manually the libncurses5_6.4-2_amd64.deb deb package. Can do it with curl too: curl -O http://launchpadlibrarian.net/648013…

I can not install LocalWP into Ubuntu 23.10 because comes back with "Error : Dependency is not satisfiable libncurses5"

+1 for the problem: cannot install on Ubuntu 23.10, because the package libncurses5 is deprecated. Ubuntu 23.10 has libncurses6 installed by default. Note that this is not an “Ubuntu only” problem, but flows up from the Debian distro… Some light reading: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libncurses5 https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libncurses6
