Yes, if you have a look at the packages/ncurses/package.xml file you will 
notice that it already has a libncurses.so dependency. We will need to add a 
.la/.so symlink in the plugins directory to not have to try the specific 
version number.

E.g. if you run "strace" on gst could you see which directories are being tried 
to find a "libncurses.so"?
