IMO there's no need to change the type of the exception; ModuleNotFoundError is fine here. Changing the text is a fairly simple thing, so it can be discussed with a simple tracker issue. Any program that attempts to import curses, and has a fallback if that fails, would continue to work correctly after this change.
