Re: ncmpcpp build error with 10.6. Apparently due to ncurses library.

On 10.4 I suspect it cannot be built (the system curses.h is as old as 
Fink's there). On 10.5/10.6, it can be built when libncurses5 is not 
installed. A BuildConflicts: libncurses5 is sufficient for this. In my 
case, I first had to remove the yafc package, which illegally Depends on 
libncurses5. OTOH, the ncmpcpp executable links with 
/sw/lib/libncursesw.5.dylib, which is not nice when the corresponding 
header files are not used.

I wonder how Jack was ever able to build this package, because the 
libncurses5 package, while not essential, is a build dependency of 
hundreds of packages, so the chances are very high that it is installed.
