openSUSE Tumbleweed attempts to eliminate the need for libncurses.so.5 and getting all packages in openSUSE ncurses6 compatible. The list is getting rather short already - one of the last consumers of this library is 'samba-clients' A quick look into the buildsystem of samba shows that it calls explicitly 'ncurses5-config' to find the required libraries and cflags. There is a very good chance that simply switching this to ncurses6-config would be sufficient for the switch In any case, ncurses5 won't be provided by ncurses-devel by default... so if a switch is not possible, a bare minimum would be to change the BuildRequires to ncurses5-devel
