Hi,
So I have a bunch of software without source that requires lib32ncursesw5, is that package available for Buster somewhere I'm not seeing? If not, it really needs to be added.
Thanks.

sudo dpkg -i lib32ncursesw5*.deb lib32tinfo5*.deb
sudo apt install -f

Don't blindly follow bad advice
Unfortunately there's a lot of bad advice on the Internet. Tutorials found on blogs, forums and other sites often include instructions that will break your system in subtle ways. Don't simply follow the first advice you find, or the tutorial that seems the easiest. Spend some time reading the documentation and compare the difference between tutorials.
It's better to take the time to figure out the correct way to do something first than spending even more time fixing a broken system later. You would not let some random stranger feed your baby; do not execute commands without first understanding what they do.
Blog and forum posts don't expire. Instructions that might have been safe a couple of years ago might not be safe to follow any more. When in doubt keep researching and read your version's documentation.
