Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to install 'libncurses5-dev' as a prerequisite
for using make menuconfig, which I'm doing to enable
usb mouse support.

However the install fails due to unmet dependencies I'm not certain
how to resolve:

# apt-get install kernel-package ncurses-dev fakeroot
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Note, selecting libncurses5-dev instead of ncurses-dev
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libncurses5-dev: Depends: libncurses5 (= 5.4-4) but 5.4-8 is to be installed
 E: Broken packages


I'm on kernel version 2.4.27-2-686. I would appreciate any suggestions.

thanks,

Ab
