On the other hand, compiling from source isn't necessarily a bad thing--I have a few ham programs which I update frequently from CVS because the packages tend to lag behind the latest code (which is also why I run the "testing" version of Debian instead of the stable version). The package names vary a bit between distributions, but libncurses-devel contains the libs and includes required for compilation of apps using ncurses. The others are required when you run the apps. Thus you probably need all of the packages you listed with the possible exception of ncurses-extraterms.
