Hello

I'm new to allegro 5, and I'm trying to install it and I have this issue.

Could you help me?

You are missing a lib.
We need more informations like what is your OS. If it's linux like, then apt-get install libxcursor or something like that should help.

Since it's a Red Hat based Linux, I think you may need libXcursor-devel - try

sudo dnf install libXcursor-devel

(I've never used Rocky but I have used Fedora)
