What branch are you building? What version of GNU Radio? What is your OS?

It seems your OS is headless / doesn't have a terminal? Is that correct?

[bmurray]

This appears to be when GnuRadio is run from a shortcut instead of from a terminal. Running GRC from the terminal seems to solve this. But that begs the question, why is it a hard dependency to need curses if people may want to run it headless? Is there a way to run it without curses?
