I have a project that compiles well with g++. I tried to cross-compile it with x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
But apparently cmake cannot find ncurses for this compiler. ncurses were installed with sudo apt install libncurses5-dev (on Ubuntu 18). The output cmake gives is:
-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 7.3.0
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -- works

Question: how should I install ncurses so it works with mingw compiler?
