- gcc

- asciidoc
- gettext with development files
- ncurses with development files
If you are using a release tarball, the following commands can be used to build and install calcurse:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
Note that make install needs to be run as root. When working on a Git
checkout, you need to run ./autogen.sh before ./configure.
