I am struggling mightily with installing ADT (Android Dev Tools) on Eclipse in Fedora 16 OS, 64-bit.
Eclipse itself is running fine.
As instructed, I first installed the regular Android SDK, the OS-level toolkit. That went smoothly and I was able to use the Android app within the tools dir.
In Eclipse, it was a little more difficult because I first had to install GWT or google-related tools, which required a core Eclipse Indigo update of WST. Finally, the ADT install reported success.
However, every time when opening Eclipse, it gives me a multitude of popups regarding libncurses.so.5 and the following log:
[2012-04-04 02:06:35 - adb] /opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When I do try to open Android SDK Manager (under Window), the plugin does open but the window has no close button anywhere (unlike the same one at the OS-level, which also looks the same) so the only way to get out of it is to find the Eclipse PID and kill it.
This solved the problem entirely:
yum install ncurses-libs.i686 libstdc++.i686 libgcc.i686
This is happening because Android SDK is a 32bit application and require some 32bit shared libraries,
I had same issue on Ubuntu 64 bits, and fixed with:
$ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386 to install the required library - much lighter than ia32-libs
Install just libncurses5:
$ sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386
ia32-libs will install much unnecessary libs.
yaourt -S multilib/lib32-ncurses
for ArchLinux
You probably don't have libncurses5 installed. Try
rpm --install ncurses-libs
had similar issue on centos:
./adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
did the following:
yum install ncurses ncurses-devel ncurses-libs ncurses-libs.i686 ncurses-devel.i686
And the issue fixed.
This tip from Tim Mattison's blog did it for me under Debian Wheezy:
sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6
