Hi Tobias,
$ NETHACKOPTIONS=windowtype:curses nethack
this worked here for me with only nethack-console being installed.
Then I installed also nethack-x11 and got the same error as you.
Though when directly invoking nethack-console, it still works:
$ NETHACKOPTIONS=windowtype:curses
Package: nethack-console
Version: 3.6.6-2
Severity: normal
It seems so that the build does not properly enable ncurses:
export NETHACKOPTIONS=windowtype:curses
tobi@isildor:/usr/lib/games/nethack$ nethack
* Window type curses not recognized. Choices are: tty, X11.
