I think curses-based terminal management headers are included in the libncurses*-dev package... Here is a full list of what is reported by Thomas (in French, sorry) as the full list of packages needed in order to compile adesklets from source on Ubuntu Breezy :

Code:


sudo apt-get install python2.4-dev libncurses5-dev libreadline5-dev libimlib2 libimlib2-dev xlibs-dev build-essential

Hey thanks, I installed all needed apps, and it did configure, make, and make install. Now I get some syntax error when I try to run a desklet!!!

configuration file parsing error 'syntax error' stopped at line 8
