How can I check if ncurses is installed?

Question

How can I check if ncurses is installed in a Red-Hat Linux OS? One solution is to use

dpkg -l '*ncurses*' | grep '^ii'

But I don't even have the dpkg package in my system, and since I don't have the administrative rights, I can't install it.

On RedHat based systems there is (mostly) no dpkg but you can use rpm -qa | grep ncurse
