Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
I get an error installing dialog 1.3 under macOS 11.0.1 using Xcode 12.2. associated with ncurses. Other utilities using ncurses like tmux work fine.
Is this a known problem?
Thanks and regards Peter

Thanks for reporting.
I can verify the problem. The configure script doesn't include the headers it needs, so the tests fail with error like:
This is common problem affecting many older software packages, when using Xcode 12 or later, which is required for Big Sur.
