tgetent is from curses/ncurses. When readline is built it either takes
a system version or a builtin one. Evidently it thinks there ought to
be a system version somewhere. In any case it looks like your readline
library uses curses but doesn't actually link to it, which is bad.
You can probably work around it by adding -lcurses to the psql link
line, but fixing readline would be better.
Have a nice day,
