Dear Stephen, Since this is an issue related not directly to deal.II but rather Spack itself (ncurses is only a dependency of a dealii related package), I would suggest that you post your question on their forum <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/spack>. You'll generally get a quick response there, and if not then you should open an issue <https://github.com/llnl/spack/issues> on their github page.
