  1. Try installing checkra1n

What do you expect, and what is happening instead? Expected checkra1n to install properly. Instead, it requires me to install libncurses5 package. However, this package is not included in Ubuntu since version 23.10 and can't be installed on it.

When trying to install libncurses5 manually, I get the following terminal output: image
