Q:

usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses

I am attempting to link with the ncurses library.  This doesn't work, though.  These are the error messages:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcurses
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Makefile:102: recipe for target 'ch_lab' failed

make[1]: *** [ch_lab] Error 1

My question is, which package should I install to get this working on Ubuntu? 

A:

You should install libncurses
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
