Possibly "sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5-dev"

sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5-dev and start over. Got a similar
error last night but after installing lib32ncurses5-dev, which seems
to install one moment and not another, compiled like a charm.

Hi, did you do this step:

To set up your development environment, install the following required
packages:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential
zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev
lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev
lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev
For building Froyo or an older release on a 64-bit system, several
other packages are necessary to establish a 32-bit build environment:

$ sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-i386 libc6-dev-
i386

It should work after you do that.

Thanks to everyone who stepped in, sorry that we all ended up writing
redundant replies. I did a moderation pass during the week-end but
didn't have time to actually reply to the messages that I had
moderated.
