I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, so maybe I'm doing something wrong here, but
I can't get zsh to compile.
I tried 'sudo apt-get install zsh-dev' but that only gave me 4.3.6
./configure fails looking for:
configure: error: "No terminal handling library was found on your system.
This is probably a library called 'curses' or 'ncurses'. You may
need to install a package called 'curses-devel' or 'ncurses-devel' on your
system."
See `config.log' for more details.
[1] 23930 exit 255 ./configure
I tried apt-get install on (n)curses(-devel) but none of them exist.
Anyone have a clue I can borrow?

Try ``libncurses5-dev'' instead of ncurses-devel.

% apt-cache search 'curses.*-dev'
