Hello, I understand from your OpenID login that you are Devin Watson the author/maintainer? I'm recieving many errors when trying to `make' I get the following errors: http://pastebin.com/f248895e6

Perhaps there are some errors in the orig makefile?

I am the author/maintainer of the source code. In looking at the make errors, do you have libncurses installed? That's the only dependency it really has besides libm, but that comes standard from what I understand. Make did compile it successfully on 8.04 with libncurses and libncurses-dev installed.

I have spent some time on this bug with the assistance of 3 MOTU, I was unable to package it. If you think that you can do this bug, go ahead and try to take over yourself.

For me it compiled out-of-the-box. All you need is the package libncurses5-dev, which contains the missing curses.h.
