I install Ubuntu 16.04 on my new laptop Lenovo Ideapad 320. In that I try to compile new kernel version 4.16 while doing make menuconfig this error's are shown:

Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the required header files.
'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries.

Install ncurses (ncurses-devel or libncurses-dev 
depending on your distribution) and try again.

scripts/kconfig/Makefile:206: recipe for target 'scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog' failed
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog] Error 1
Makefile:514: recipe for target 'menuconfig' failed
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

After the I search through internet and I found that Ncurses want to install. Then I install that also

sudo apt-get install libncurses5
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev

But result is same that is error..
