Description:
When running the wine as install via this package you get this error -
Wine cannot find the ncurses library (libncursesw.so.5).


A patch is already available over at AUR, and should be used here as well.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wine-git/

Also check the dependencies since some were missing from this that are also fixed on the git.

Additional comments about closing:  Already an optional dep, have to assume that's fine.

Do you have ncurses installed? It's an optional dependency for the wine package.

Edit: and if you're talking the x86_64 version from the multilib repo, that would be lib32-ncurses, not ncurses. Again, just check the optdeps.
