[FIXED] ImportError: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Issue

On an Ubuntu-based system, I got this error that I didn't have before in an existing FastAI Python project.

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Solution

Terminal:

sudo apt-get install libtinfo5
