Referenced from: /Applications/SWI-Prolog.app/Contents/MacOS/…/Frameworks/libncurses.6.dylib (which was built for Mac OS X 10.15)

Turns out the build picks up ncurses.dylib from Macports instead of using the system version. Raised an issue on CMake Discourse to see whether there is a reasonable way to avoid this.

In the meanwhile, I guess your best options are to upgrade your Mac or install using Macports (which should install a version suitable for your MacOS version).

Beste Jan,

Dank.

upgrade your Mac

’t is een oude laptop - macOS 10.13 is de laatste systeemversie die
hij kan hebben. Ik hoor wel of de issue melding wat oplevert.

#4

The CMake community did their work. Now managed to compile a version that no longer depends on Macport components. Will be used for the next patch release.
