Linux Error: curses.h: No such file or directory Problem Solution

Q. I see following error when I run make command to install specific software:

curses.h: No such file or directory Problem Solution

How do I fix this error under Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or CentOS / Fedora Linux?

A.. You need to install the curses library which include routines for a terminal-independent method of updating character screens with reasonable optimization. The ncurses (new curses) library is a freely distributable replacement for the
discontinued 4.4 BSD classic curses library.

Fix this error under RHEL / Fedora / CentOS Linux

Type the following command at a shell prompt as root user:
# yum install ncurses-devel ncurses
