Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.1.2-11
Severity: grave

It would appear that in the past, curses.h was included in libc6-dev. If I try
to install libncurses4-dev, it complains about conflicting with libc6-dev.
After a recent upgrade, I was unable to compile ncurses-dependant apps (e.g.
cd /usr/src/linux ; make menuconfig).

I was able to remedy the problem by fetching the sources to ncurses5 and doing
make install.
