System:

NAME="Linux Mint"
VERSION="20 (Ulyana)"
ID=linuxmint
ID_LIKE=ubuntu
PRETTY_NAME="Linux Mint 20"
VERSION_ID="20"

VERSION_CODENAME=ulyana
UBUNTU_CODENAME=focal

$ xindy --version
xindy release: 2.5.1
xindy script version: 1.18
xindy kernel version: 3.0
CLISP version 2.49.92 (2018-02-18) (built on bulldog [127.0.0.1])
architecture: X86_64

In the release with TeXLive 2020, updated today 2020-07-09, xindy requires
libcurses.o.5 . This is no longer standard in Linux Mint 20 (or probably in
Ubuntu 20), which installs libcurses6. So xindy won't run until you have
installed libncurses5 from the repository.



Best,
