CMake can't find Curses

Question

I am trying to compile the openlase library from www.marcansoft.com and have been running into problems with CMake. CMake is returning an error stating that it cannot find Curse

Answer 1

Temporarily set CURSES_NEED_NCURSES to TRUE to force the use of NCURSES, rather than letting CMake try to find CURSES.

set(CURSES_NEED_NCURSES TRUE)

CURSES_USE_NCURSES is used by FindCurses.cmake internally, so setting that won't help.
