Can't install EclipseFP as scion-browser cannot be installed as terminfo cannot be installed

Note: Question asked to Self Answer ( to save other's time)

Cannot install EclipseFP. This is because scion-browser cannot be installed. This is because terminfo cannot be installed, giving the following error:

"configure: error: curses headers could not be found, so this package cannot be built "

1) Install the ncurses library and zlib1g libraries using:

apt-get install zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev

2) Courtesy: http://eclipsefp.github.com/dev.html

In the new Eclipse window that (hopefully) pops up, set the location of the Scion server via Window > Preferences > Haskell > Scion. If you installed it in a fairly standard location, the Autodetect button should do the trick; otherwise, just Browse.
