Hi Mike,<br>
<br>
Good catch. I thought that I had corrected that in one of the diffs
I sent to ESR, but I only compounded the incongruity. You are
correct - the libncurses5-dev Debian package is required. I can
throw a diff at Eric now - or if he's 'watching' perhaps he'll put
the fix in presently.<br>
