>/usr/share/lib/terminfo is unaccessible

You need that directory to be able to use top(1). It's part of OS-Core.UX2-Core.

Is it there for root? I.e. permission problem on one of the path components?

What does the following command return? Are you trying to run 'top' as root or as some other user?

# ls -ld /usr/share/lib/terminfo

Running as root user

Looks like you mistakenly deleted that directory. When did top(1) last work?

What does this show:

ll -d /usr/share /usr/share/lib /usr/share/lib/terminfo
