Can't you use apt-get if you use the Debian development image?
For the on-board TSLinux Image...
For ncurses all you should need is a suitable libncurses.so file, and a
few terminfo files to support those terminals you are interested in - ANSI
maybe enough. AFAIK existing terminfo files can just be copied from
another unix/linux system - they are usually in /etc/terminfo, or
/lib/terminfo, or /usr/share/terminfo.
The libncurses may have to be cross compiled. It might be easier to
cross-compile the lib to a static library, and then stitc link your
application to that. That way you won't need to copy the library onboard.
Remember to set you TERM env variable to the termtype you are using.
