Hi,

Since you don't even say on what platform (Linux, BSD, Solaris,...)
you are trying to build MySQL, it is hard to give you specific answers.

If you are using some Linux distro based on RPM (RedHat, Mandrake,..)
you should search for a ncurses-devel-<something>.rpm (<something> depends
on your distro).

BTW, this is becoming completely off-topic for a MySQL mailing list.
