A particular android build requires a dependency on libncurses. This was the error.
prebuilts/clang/host/linux-x86/clang-3289846/bin/clang.real: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
12:33:20 ninja failed with: exit status 1
I tried sudo apt install after enabling the universe repository. That didn't work.
I manually downloaded libncurses 5 from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/ncurses/
After extracting and configuring, the make is failing.
This is the error after make

How do I add these missing files and make libncurses5 for Ubuntu 23.1?
