NCurses has changed recently to take into account ncurses 6 so that in
future everything should work out of the box. Fingers crossed.

Hi,
Good catch. I fixed it in master by using LibraryCheck and tested it on
Manjaro Linux (which is ArchLinux-based). Please let me know if it works

ABI version 6 is not compatible with version 5 (in particular, color
handling changed). It is not safe to just use whatever ncurses happens to
be around.
