HoHow to compile Linux dialog - "curses.h" missing ?

Hi,

I tried native compile Linux dialog for Linux embedded device
and got "curses.h" error message.

As Linux dialog is already compiled and working as Debian .deb package (installed it).
What is a way to import curses.h from other package sources to work for dialog sources compilation in my case ?

What is missing and I was advised to look for
ncurses-devel package.
Unfortunately ncurses-devel has not been compiled as a package either.

Happy New Year

Darius

do_dialog

do_dialog(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual						do_dialog(3alleg4)

NAME

       do_dialog - Basic dialog manager function. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int do_dialog(DIALOG *dialog, int focus_obj);

DESCRIPTION

       The basic dialog manager function. This displays a dialog (an array of dialog objects, terminated by one with a NULL dialog procedure), and
       sets the input focus to the focus_obj (-1 if you don't want anything to have the focus). It interprets user input and  dispatches  messages
       as  they  are  required, until one of the dialog procedures tells it to close the dialog, at which point it returns the index of the object
       that caused it to exit, or until ESC is pressed, at which point it returns -1.
