ncurses program won't run on debian armv7

问题:

Can somebody here help me with ncurses for armv7 (x86)? I just want to run on Debian my C++ program uses ncurses It has error "Error opening terminal: xterm."

I used this installation guide: http://soft-dev-pro.blogspot.ru/2014/07/cross-compile-ncurses-for-arm.html

If i type which in console, it shows this: which $TERM /usr/bin/xterm

It seems initscr() function won't start curses mode

Your ncurses program is looking for

/usr/arm-linux-gnueabihf/share/terminfo

and not finding that. If you do

export TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo

then the program can use that setting to find the system's terminal database.
