Missing ncurses - cannot load such file

[lenards]

Hi - first off, thanks for the work on this.

I think there is a dependency missing since I don't see an attempt to install the ncurses gem.

I'm running an Ubuntu 13.04 EC2 AMI and I've apt-get installed ruby 1.9.1 along with rubygems. I did a gem install salticid and when I attempt to run the salticid executable I get this load error message:

# salticid -h 
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': cannot load such file -- ncurses (LoadError)
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
    from /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/salticid-0.9.5/lib/salticid/interface.rb:3:in `<class:Interface>'
    from /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/salticid-0.9.5/lib/salticid/interface.rb:2:in `<class:Salticid>'
    from /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/salticid-0.9.5/lib/salticid/interface.rb:1:in `<top (required)>'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
    from /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/salticid-0.9.5/bin/salticid:6:in `<top (required)>'
    from /usr/local/bin/salticid:23:in `load'
    from /usr/local/bin/salticid:23:in `<main>'

I'm sure this might be user-error on my part. I don't know if only Ruby 2+ is supported. But I don't see a wiki and there is no mention in the README (also, I don't see a {{.ruby-version}} file in the repo either).

I see a commit that suggests that the ncurses is a requirement again:

Unfortunately, I can't get the ncurses gem to build right now. I'm working on that.

I use apt-get install ruby-ncurses. If you can figure out a better way, I would love to use it, because OS X users have had some gnarly issues getting ncurses working, but stock ruby curses hangs ubuntu and debian hard for some reason.

I just installed ruby-ncurses, and it works for me now. Thank you very much.

If I just figured out a better way re OS X, I'll let you know. I moved to a VM when I ran into the issue on my Mac.
