What do you mean by installed? If you mean "it exists somewhere on the
filesystem", that isn't good enough. The loader needs to know where to
find it. The details depend upon your platform, but ...

help me please!

... you haven't told us anything about which platform you are using.

You need ncurses5 library to be installed. Be sure to run "ldconfig"
afterwards. Then it should be ok.
