Error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5 not found

[ttt-404]

When attempting to run samtools, I encounter the following error:

(Monopogen) ttt:~/Monopogen$ ～/Monopogen/apps/samtools
～/Monopogen/apps/samtools: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Do you know why this shared libraray not included in the apps folder？ How can I sovle this problem？Thanks if you would help！

One can check if there is a libncurses5 in the dynamic library: dpkg -l | grep libncurses
If not, just install it (if it is Ubuntu): sudo apt-get -y install libncurses5
