Unable to locate package ncurses

  • 772

I was trying to install ncurses on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with the following line:

sudo apt-get install libncurses6-dev libncursesw6-dev

I get this output:

Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libncurses6-dev
E: Unable to locate package libncursesw6-dev

Any idea how I can fix this?

  1. To install ncurses, try sudo apt install ncurses

    For the -dev package, try sudo apt install libncurses-dev

    There are no -dev packages for libncurses6 nor for libncursesw6.
