As of the current Emacs sources, https://github.com/emacs-
mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/term.el#L1472 contains

  (defvar term-term-name "eterm-color"

so there really is an explicit setting in the upstream sources which
hardcodes this.  With that, I guess I agree that emacs24 should
"Suggests: ncurses-term".
