ratop not working in Ubuntu

[Harry Bock]

Try installing libncurses-dev and rebuild the clients; it looks like you
don't have ARGUS_CURSES defined, causing this error.

Carter: I stumbled upon this as well awhile back, but forgot to mention it -
those variables (ArgusCursesEnabled and RaScreenResize) are defined under
#if defined(ARGUS_CURSES), but then used in the code without the #ifdef.
Does ratop have a non-curses mode? It might be best to just not compile
ratop at all if it doesn't.

Anyway, here's a patch to "fix" compilation of ratop without curses support:
http://projects.oshean.org/index.cgi/argus-clients/patch/?id=43eaed68b60061d401cfe49fb9ec84d476d8684f
(Unfortunately I don't have a patch against the vanilla distro nor against
CVS, so it's in git format... apologizes for the inconvenience!)
