Culprit for this one is that ncurses now installs widec libs whereas it

and dummy libs creation for chapter 5 ncurses is necessary like in
chapter 6.
What was the rationale for having widec enabled during ch5 ncurses
starting wtih 7.5?

I honestly have no idea.
It was changed in revision 10447 which contains no explanation for this
specific change.
"This switch causes wide-character libraries (e.g., libncursesw.so.5.9)
to be built instead of normal ones (e.g., libncurses.so.5.9). These
wide-character libraries are usable in both multibyte and traditional
8-bit locales, while normal libraries work properly only in 8-bit
locales. Wide-character and normal libraries are
source-compatible, but not binary-compatible."
