"terminals database is inaccessible"

[matteoguglielmi]

Hello,

When boxes 2.3.0 is statically compiled with make clean static, nearly all make test fail (169 over 181) with terminals database is inaccessible.

I have compiled it statically on Debian 11 (amd64 CPU), Ubuntu 24.04 (arm64 CPU) and Ubuntu 24.04 (riscv64 CPU).

The only static compilation that works is on the riscv64 CPU.

Could anyone reproduce this error?

Thank you.

EDIT1:

Changing the TERM variable affects the number of successful tests, yet I still need help getting all of them successful since none of the TERM values can achieve that (on the riscv64 CPU, all tests are successful with TERM=xterm-256color).

EDIT2:

It works when statically compiled on Arch Linux with the TERM variable set to xterm or xterm-256color (no difference). Therefore, the problem seems to be, to some extent, distribution dependent.
