Hello

When I do make menuconfig I get following error :-

 

"

*** Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the

 *** required header files.

 *** 'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries.

 ***

 *** Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again.

 ***

make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog] Error 1

make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

 

"

How can I include the libraries.

 

Thanks and Regards

Take a close look at the error message, where you find
"Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again.". E.g. on a Debian system a 
call like 
sudo aptitude install ncurses-bin libncurses5-dev
should to the job.
